How Many???


I realize that Bose must sell hundreds of thousands of speaker systems per year. But in the high end market, how many Avalons, Meadowlarks, Silverlines, Coincidents are sold each year? 100? 1000? I am sure Magnepan , Vandersteen,
are such great values, then that number must jump up to the
10,000 mark ( or am I way off???). I have not been to a best buy or circuit city or tweeter in years, but their house brands must sell in the tens of thousands of units
for them to stay in business. I am including home theater systems. So I guess the two channel companies must have a very low output. Does anybody has some hard numbers on the high end speaker companies sales?

I asked the same question at AA, I think, a while back, as an aside to some other question. Nobody picked up on it. I would love to know also. High-end audiophiles are a rare group in that they love to spend way, way more for any product believing it has to be better. The fundamental equation $$$$ = great sound. I, being a cheapskate of sorts, prefer to find the best product for the price and believe that in that department economies of scale can't hurt.
