People buy $10,000 handbags without any more functional purpose. Why not luxury electronics? Seriously, if it looks beautiful, and the main purpose is for people to feel good about it, and feel good about other people seeing it - is there any real difference between a luxury handbag (luxury watch) and a luxury HiFi system?

- M4v3R 12y agoThe difference is, nobody is arguing that their luxury handbag can carry more stuff and than acheap handbag. On the other hand audiophiles will swear that they are systems sounds better than others.
- ghshephard 12y agoThat flies in the face of every A/B test I've ever seen - and I'm not an audiophile - presumably they know 100x more than I do about audio quality. Nobody buys $900 stereo cables because they think they'll perform better than $45 monster cables. They buy those cables for the presentation, the craftsmanship, and the brand.
