Why so expensive??

Hey, like any luxury item, if you got the bucks and having the best floats your boat, and everyone's happy in the end (particularly the vendor) why not?

Personally, I'd rather go for value and donate the savings to charity or use it for other good cause. Ideally, if more people did this, the world would be a much better place. Then again, I've spent plenty of money on what still has to be considered expensive audio equipment that I am able to afford (barely). I do this because I work hard, love music and aspire to high standards for things I care about.

Realistically, of course, I am not wealthy enough to afford the creme-de-la-creme. If I were, the temptations would surely be hard to resist......

I feel lucky to live in a place and time where so many things (both good and bad) are available to so many and everyone has the ability to chose.

What a wonderful world.......

"Any product/service is worth what someone is willing to pay for it."

Yep. Everyone has their own concept of "value" and "worth".

Of course, good marketing doesn't hurt to boost perceptions of "worth" either!

What was the model # and manufacturer of the $350000 amp again?

What speakers is this used with?

How big is the room it is used in?

What is the sensitivity of the speakers used?

Not that any of this really matters for me. I doubt I could afford to even rent a listen!

Still, I am curious!

Just read the Stereophile review of the Wavac.

Man, I gotta get me a pair of these babys!

Just not quite sure how!!!!!
