The Economy.. will hi end audio mfgs lower prices?

.
The state of California just laid off 20,000 employees. National unemployment is at a 30 year high.

Will there be a shake-out in high end audio? Will we continue to see $10k preamps and $30k amps?

According to the article below, prices of most consumer goods, especially big ticket consumer goods are going down.

High End Audio is not going to lower their prices EVER!!!
They have an image to uphold and would probably rather shoot themselves first, much the way the recording industry has imploded on itself. It is possible that prices will come down, but only if the industry receives a stimulus bailout. :>)
