Yes, I would spend over $5000.00; however, I agree with some of the earlier posts that suggest buying used. I recently bout a pair of Martin-Logan CLS full-range electrostatics. They're $4700.00 new. I paid $800.00. When I got home one of the panels transducers had to be replaced for $200.00. So, for $1000.00 I have some of the most open and wonderful speakers on the planet for a fraction of their orignal cost. I spent my lunch hour today listening to smoe $11,000 B&Ws. In my opinion, they didn't come close to what I have at home.
Willl you spend over $5000.00 for speakers?
I always wondered what type of person will spend over $5000.00 for speakers. I bought a used Willson WITT 1 for $5700.00 and I am told by people that I am out of my mind. I don't care what they say. I love my WIIT 1 and soon to upgrade the speaker. Willson Audio is one manufacture who cares about your investment in a beautiful well built speaker and allows you to upgrade the speaker for a fee. Wow!! What a great sound. Kick back and drink a cold beer while I enjoy one song after another.
