This seems like the "expensive" v. "overpriced" concepts at work. IMO, something is overpriced if you can buy something just as good for less money. If you can't, while the item may be expensive, it's not overpriced. But, and this is a big but - is the price of the item you know is better worth the difference over the lesser product to you personally? I think the BMW 5 series is considerably nicer than the 3 series, but to me, I can't justify the 20K price difference. So it's a question of what the improvement is worth to you personally, weighed against the difference in price.
Purist Audio Design - Dominus Interconnect Cable
Hi,
Not to downgrade the efforts of cable designers, for me cable industry is the least technical demanding one among the audio equipment manufacture field but the price tags grow exponentially in the past decade. I can pay for technologies like amorphous metal alloys from Stealth or the battery-biased designs of Audioquest. But Purist Audio Design provides inadequate information to convince me to make the purchase. Even their most advanced technology years ago – The Radiant Light Source (RLS), they did not explain the source of the designed illuminating light.
So help me here. How to justify the over $5,000 price tag of Dominus interconnect cable at 1-mter length.
Thanks and Happy Listening!
