Most high-end audio companies are catering to the 1 percenters. Why you ask? Because those are the people that have money to spend. The rest of us are to busy just trying to survive.

A great system made up of new components can be gotten for little money these days for any willing to shop around and not fall into the trap of "in" subjective audio frivolity. More vintage components are another way to do it, although the prices have shot up.
Avoiding the trends is always a good way of getting bang for the buck.
So the one percenter comment is misplaced IMHO.
If you blamed the fact that too many people, especially the young, have precarious work and no hope of getting in their lifetime a real job with some security based on the 1% and their apparatchiks having found a way to syphon off more money I would say you are on to something.
P.S. Did gawd create private property?
And to think, you are almost 20 years my senior!
