> The funny part was the owner constantly talking about how much better a $25K pair of speakers sounded than a $15K pair of speakers. The funny thing is that it's actually the complete opposite. Due to the law of vanishing returns, the difference between a $25K unit and a $15K unit can be subtle. It is astonishing how good speakers are these days. I'm running a set of Behringers that cost $300 and they exceed anything you could buy for a $1000 in Y2K. Of course, this assumes that you buy new. If you buy used, there's a lot of great stuff under $1000.
