The Economy's way of telling you you have too much money...

$1,000,000 stereo speakers.

Nobody's music sounds that good...

True enough.... besides, my ears are ruined after to many loud concerts (Nugent amoung others) and rounds without adequate hearing protection.

Pish, I haven't even fired up the Crown stereo equipment I own in 5+ years.

OTOH, if I had a rig that could drive that setup I'd surely enjoy using it.

To quote Professor Herman Horne on HiFi, from the old Stan Freeberg radio show:

"No, no, no! Your house BECOMES the speaker! You move to the garage."

You know, I say, "God bless anyone with that kind of money to burn," but that's just ridiculous.

If I had money to burn and wanted a monster rig in my house, I'd dial-up one of any number of pro touring audio houses around the country and tell 'em to send me a truck full. The sheer invoice-weight might not impress All The Right People, but -- in the old road adage -- "the only thing that counts is what comes out of your speakers," and nobody knows how to do that like the arena big kids.

What nonsense.
