The sales person at a very high end shop was telling me that he has noticed, first hand!!! that the average person buying such a system isn't really looking for audiophile great listening. More like they are looking for an extreme WOW factor or rock-em until the millionaires next door get pissed.
What he has noticed is someone wanting a real audiophile grade setup usually buys a setup with far less power (and tonnage). But don't let the wattage fool you, he's still talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars.
