These seem a bit pricey $$$


Saw Steve Guttenberg’s review of the Credo 900’s the other day. I realize there is a lot more involved in the cost of a speaker than parts costs - labor, insurance shipping, dealer margins. OK, that’s called business. But 12K for these?
Just seems a bit out of line.
No, I never heard them.  Maybe they're worth it.

@eganmedia:  "Buyers like expensive equipment. An underpriced pair of speakers may well outperform a more expensive pair and suffer for it in the marketplace."  
@rksweet: "People spend hundreds of dollars on a bottle of wine."

Perception rules.  Back in the late 80s a company called PT Aqua Golden Mississippi decided to enter the bottled water market in Indonesia with a strategy to undercut the competition with the lowest price--after a year they had nearly zero market share.  They re-grouped, re-packaged and came out with the highest-priced bottled water and have never looked back--still #1 in market share!
