Well, I don't

Regarding the cost: I think that you pay for the result, not the components. And it will cost a lot to get a product in the market place. Besides, the amps are handmade (in Japan, expensive country) and in low quantities. Ok, if Sony would make this amp for this price it would be expensive...

Also with the technical comments I mostly do not agree. I believe vibration has an influence on the sound of audio component (and I did some experiments to check this). In my opinion, it's important that the correlation between impulses in the music at different times is as low as possible. If resonances can be released quickly, this will lower the correlation.

And yes, single drivers sound better
