Current speaker threads are boring


Almost no talk regarding great speakers, just some endless midlevel stuff. Why is that?

For me, if I've got the scratch to buy $50k+ speakers I know the candidates that interest me and don't need any help deciding, so I'm not asking here.  Also, I'd guess that once speakers at this level are bought they aren't changed all that often (shipping cost, risk,  and hassle make it relatively onerous versus, say, an amp) so less likely to hear from this group, and this just gets us back to point one anyway.  Last, I'm not really gonna get on here and talk about how my megabuck speakers sound.  Duh.  They sound awesome, and I'm a rich, arrogant prick.  I'd like to hear more about these speakers here too in case I win the lottery or my kids don't go to college, but I'm not holding my breath.  

Much more likely to hear from someone who owns these speakers looking to maybe change their amp or pre to tweak the sound one way or another, which is probably why there's more discussion about higher end electronics, etc.  Anyway...

Inna, you should start a Thurston Howell III audio site where rich pricks can freely discuss their wares without fear of retribution from commoners or Tekton DI owners.
