Anyone interested in some new speakers - or a new house - either one, take your pick.

I'll pass, don't think they'd match my decor...
For that money you could just get an in house band on retainer.

For that price you could buy the band in some countries.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

I have it on good authority that the General will throw in a "lightly used" Mil Mi-24 Hind Gunship painted fetchingly to match the Afghan coutryside if you take this rabble of his hands

$165K? Peanuts!

That won't even buy you a one room condo to put your speakers in, where I live.

Wonder if the spheres will be at RMAF?

Hi,

Anone read the stereophile review ?

So—to $165,000, add another $100,000 for the four pairs of
speaker cables and balanced interconnects, for a grand total
of $265,000—and that's just for the amps and speakers and
the wire to hook them up with.
Preamp and source components and their wires are extra.

Ah, it would appear the picture which kind of made that comment make sense has disappeared/ been removed . I can't quite understand why? I don't think it was offensive? Mod care to shed any light?

Asides from that, $100,000 for a set of 4 speaker cables? WOW Is that for a particular length, I guess at that rate needing a few extra metres stretch would cost you a new car.

Heck - I'm just jealous that I can't get $165,000 for a pair of speakers that will certainly sound better!! Am I crazy or something? If I sold a couple pair at that price I could retire.

Ignore that, for some reason the pic works again... good ole cyberspace, it's a wonder more stuff doesn't get lost in there.

I actually find them quite discomforting to look at, It would feel like being stared down every time you sat down.
The stands are hideous IMO, though I doubt very much they are concerned about losing my potential custom.
