You know one of the strangest things is that whenever I just as much as harrumph when someone extolls the virtue of the First Commandment of subjective high-end audio: "More money equals better sound ad infinitum", there is a general outcry that I am incapable of understanding that people with money know what they are doing when buying 40k preamps or 120k speakers and that they are simply enjoying their freedom and the rewards of the great free market economy.

So why is it then that Bose is singled out for its marketing of "easy payments" and the "exorbitant" price of what amounts to a table radio when you have magical speaker makers overbuilding boxes over and above the level of brick shithouses and asking over 100k and they get a pass with the usual "who are YOU to decide how a person spends his money" and the "you simply don't understand that the law of diminishing returns will never make a real moneyed audiophile blink" whereas the average person that buys Bose and is subjectively satisfied with it is required to be protected against exploitation?

Deux poids deux mesures.
