I'm almost afraid to jump in....

But I have to....

Not having seen these in person... $2000???????????? I hope that's enough question marks to convey my incredulity. Not as to the function because I wouldn't poo poo anything I haven't heard for myself, and I haven't heard these.

My question, and I'm really trying not to be a dick here, because I have no idea what goes into making these things or how much R&D costs for this stuff, is "Why do you price them out of reach of almost EVERYONE?" Even if I heard an improvement, I wouldn't be able to keep them and he won't make a dime.

Have these guys ever heard the "Sell to the classes, live with the masses" line? Again, if you're only making $100 bucks at the $2000 price point, I get it..you're doing the best you can. But if you want to rake in $1800 in profit on each set of 8, you're limiting your market.

When I see the product on the website, and read the description in Stereo times:

"rectangles of quarter-inch-thick, laminated ABS plastic approximately 2" by 6" with a 6" pigtail of wire sticking out the end"

Come on... $2000?
