RE: The Diablo sells for the equivalent of $17,000 here in Denmark

Yes, that is serious money! I'm working in HK right now and am lucky that a lot of hi-fi seems to be much cheaper than in other countries. For example, the cd player I bought was at about 40% discount to Sydney and UK prices and similar to the cheapest price in US. In this case it seems the Diablo could be obtained for an even larger mark down. I wonder why sometimes. I don't think quality is an issue - they are brand new.

Now, if Diablo sells at around USD12-15K in US/Europe and BAT sells for around half that, and both get very good reviews, it would be tempting to conclude that Diablo is the way to go.

I wish the same shop would sell both units so I could be sure! Unfortunately they don't believe in home demo here in HK, which may be partly why they're cheaper here...
