Has anyone made the jump to $uper High end and were disappointed?

I'm talking $50,000 and higher amps, speakers, cablesetc. I know there is excellent sounding gear from $100 to infinity (much is system dependent, room, etc). However, just curious if someone made the leap and deep down realize the "expected" sound quality jump was not as much as the price jump. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to make that jump. However, looking at another forum's thread about price point of diminishing returns got me wondering if anyone had buyers remorse. It's not easy to just "flip" a super high priced component.

I will put this weekend the review in english of  the Hurricane. It will make clear what makes it differently to the old ones and others.

I wrote an article about Audioquest but not in english. I will translate it soon. And I will put it overhere. A person will do the grammatically correct. It is not my 1ste language as most of you know:)

Our website will also be in english in 2018. All the texts needs to be translated professional first. I will let you when it is ready.

@stfoth; what I know for 100% sure is that your Bluesound cannot reveal all the properties of sound.

Bo aka Socrates:  That was weak.  I think you are mixing the $uper high end thread with the favorite budget item thread.  Let us know when we can get our hands on your super-modded 3D Onkyo in 110v for the price of a Node 2.

Everest cables by Audioquest are $21,000 and Audioquest HDMI cables are $13,000. I think that probably qualities Audioquest for the $uper High end. Obviously Audioquest sells mor3 “affordable”cables, too. I don’t know how much the new Hurricane power cord is but I have a sneaking suspicion it’s not cheap. I patiently await Bo’s write-up of the Hurricane power cord and his thinking about Cable and Power Cord Directionality.

The Everest are discontinued cables. Are not there anymore for many many years. Second the most expensive hdmi cable is the Diamond and costs 935 dollar. 

You are talking nonsense. The Hurricane is even in the US below 1500 dollar. The most expensive one the Dragon is  below 5000 dollar.

Audio is all about facts :)
