I've got enough gold...I want mine made out of... osmiridium
I'd want mine out of either magnesium (during a loud party, we might get a cool lightshow!)
... or maybe dioxygen difluoride, just to see them try to make it.

I have a Sony MiniDisc portable from ~10 years ago whose case is made of solid magnesium. It weighs so little it just feels strange to hold it in your hands. It cost more back then than the most expensive iPod Touch today, but weighs almost nothing and runs continuously for about 3 days straight (no joke) on a single charge.
Yeah, I remember seeing gold plated $$$$$ tube amps and preamps at audio shows in the 1980s. I asked who bought them. Answer: "Mostly southeast Asian drug dealers."Someone at Sonic Frontiers told me decades ago about the advantage the finish had in up-and-coming Asian markets of the time.
On the reasonable assumption that members of a market targeted by £27,000,000.00 single bottles of Limoncello aren't all functional idiots, I wonder if this is some new form of tax dodge or end run around regulations governing ownership of precious metals. Hyperinflation could turn $6M speakers into the cheapest on the planet.
