    Well I have seen wristwatches selling for $100, 200K. Do they tell time any better? This is not new technology in phone cartridges and maybe worth $100-200. Maybe 300.

    well Gary wristwatches can be jewellery and you can pay for the name and the craftsmanship.... but not for me, I'd lose or break it [or never ever wear it]

    guess you pay for the craftsmanship here too, but not sure my ears would hear the difference, and you would need kit to match.... talking of which:

    how about one metre audio cables at £3600 - £3950 a pair [ex vat] ? not called 'statement' for nothing I guess...

    My sophisticated stereo is my iPhone, Spotify, and a pair of wireless Harmon Kardon Sound Sticks. Great sound! At least to my elderly ears.

    That pricing is insane. But, I'm sure that company will continue to charge that price as long as people pay it. 1 sale covers an employee's salary for a month.
