Current speaker threads are boring

Just so we understand the parameters of high end and "midlevel stuff," can you define the levels for us? How much do I need to spend on speakers before they are "really high end"? How about amps? Sources?

I am not sold on a direct correlation between cost and quality, but then again I have never spent more than $15,000 on a pair of speakers. I am genuinely curious about this line of demarcation and how it is determined.

"Cost enough." I see. Or rather, I don't, but it is good to see that the Tekton police have made an appearance to keep out the riff raff.

Yes, a separate thread where Tekton detractors can gather and kvetch about speakers they've never heard sounds perfect to me. And much easier to ignore than the persistent trolling in the existing Tekton threads. Have at it, boys!
