And not everyone who buys expensive audio gear does it because they appreciate great sound or great music. A dealer for Wilson speakers told me he sells a lot of systems purely because of the competition among young software gazillionaires to have the coolest toys. A restaurant owner friend told a similar story about expensive wine, he spent considerable time tracking down exotic bottles his wealthy customers could spend $400 on to impress their dinner guests. It wasn't the taste of the wine that was important to them.
