General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

No, not by wealth or expenditure or by sensibility.

What many of us want you to do is to post your system - permanently - in your profile, so it will appear in the Inmate Systems listings, so people can find it easily and consider it. Some brief details of your learning about setting up in your room, or rooms over the years, would also be appropriate.

It would be almost as vital to to know the music that you care about, that is, that you mostly listen to. And how much you know about fidelity in recordings. There's a window in the system listing for you to do that briefly. You should also post about this primary aspect of the hobby, there are fora for that as well.

So far none of us have any insight into why you are in this hobby, apart from displaying your wealth.

To assume that price is a reliable measure of system quality makes me wonder if you have any real depth of understanding about audio at all. Your posting history here also reinforces that view, which I've already alluded to.

There's a large group of DIYers out there, some of whose systems would eat yours alive, for a lot less money. There are others like me who buy used classics and modify to modern standards, and who tend to settle on speakers like say QUADs or other iconic items for long periods, and who find the money, because they love music enough to want it in their homes at a high standard.

Elites are much more complex entities than you seem to believe, I was going to type think, but it didn't seem valid in this case.

Elites are about leadership and about questioning, and about change. Leadership / being influential, does not depend on a high income, probably because true leaders take risks.
