I totally concur. I have listened to many megabuck systems that left me asking, what? and why?
For example, the MBL Radialstrahler speakers. I can’t see why anyone would like this design except for, perhaps, the visual impact they provide. I tried but could not enjoy those large snail looking alien horn affairs. Again, where’s the bass?
Other components I scratch my head over when it comes to the sonic value/price include Nordost cables, Wilson speakers, SME turntables and D’Agostino amplifiers ( I used to own and enjoy Krell FPBcx series preamps and amps so I have no idea what’s going on with Dan).
