Strange, Gideon mentions that he has a $500,000 ceiling on a system. I will appreciate that when I visit him. I now know how much cash to bring.

Anyone who thinks a speaker is worth more than $50k is -------lucky if he can afford to buy it.
Guess I'll trade in my hard earned Porsche 911c4s and my high end system. I
wouldn't want to upset anyone else who thinks I'm wasting my money cause I
could buy a really good car at 1/3 the price or a top notch audio system for 1/2
the price. Oh that's right I almost forgot, I don't care what anyone else thinks
and I am comfortable that each dollar was well spent in the context of my life.
And oh yea, I also forgot, I love the high end MSB combo CD transport/dac and
clock but cannot afford it and think it is silly expensive. But I do wish the person
who buys it well and would love to drop by and hear it in his/her system. Is there
anyone here that I have to check in with before I make my purchasing decision or
visit my MSB-buying friend or should I just continue in my ignorant bliss as a
victim of the snake oil marketing of the high end auto and audio industries?
