New level of ridiculousness


$8,995 for a power strip???
Stick 8 off the shelf receptacles in a marble??? box, and there it is.
It is getting more and more ridiculous. As if manufacturers are now driven by a desire to extract as much $$$ from aaudiophiles with sufficient income, and not by a desire to advance the quality of their products.
I wonder...

It's nice to see that gilding the lily is still in vogue for those who see the silk in the sows ear.

The 1% have to have something to show for all their toils pushing all that funny money around.

All the best,

Why care? Is it your need to save the world from overpriced crapola?
Why start with powerstrips?
Actually why not, since I really don't care anyway.

Some people have solid gold bathroom fixtures.. and luxury yachts with full crews.. private jet aircraft.. Am I supposed to protest?
Doesn't matter to me.
I share the same viewpoint as Elizabeth. Why care or be envious/jealous of what adults do with their disposable income?
Maril555, there are many people(I would`nt) who`d question your judgement in owning 30k speakers and a 19K preamp for example.Nonaudiophiles would find it near insanity to spend 500.00 for a single interconnect,what, 3 feet of wire? ( and we know they can certainly go much higher than that) or how about 200-500.00 for a pair of NOS tubes(those small glass things?). What people decide to do with THEIR money is up to them.What some consider to be a justifiable price is totally ridiculous to another with different values.
