Ellery911, it looks like you have a porsche 911. if you do, you paid dearly for the engineering that went into it. why is a porsche so much more than a kia? subaru? you for 1 should know that there are differences in technology. i too have owned porsche's and i do know i pay for the quality that goes into each 1. it would be so easy for a kia owner to say 'X-Dream technology' to a porsche owner.

also, i have read many reviews on what it takes for manufactures to build speakers, and the majority of the time (and cost) is in the making of the cabinets and in the r&d work that went in up front (look at wilson, totem, and sonus faber for examples). try this, call up a dealer and ask them what it would cost to replace a tweeter or woofer in your speaker system? i'll bet, cheaper than you think.
unbelievable! and i thought there was an age limit before you can create a response to a thread. reading a couple of the responses above, i guess the manufacturers didn't get the email that stated they were foolish to create speaker systems so expensive, like the wilson watt puppy's and maxx, sonus faber stradavarius, krell lat, martin logan, rockports, and many others. people might go broke because they have to sell all of their belongings to buy these speakers. a lot of kids will not be attending college because their parents invested their savings into a pair of speakers.
how many times do we read reviews from stereophile and others that claim the piece of equipment they are currently listening to is the best they ever heard? more times than stating the piece is a piece of junk. $25k is a whole lot cheaper than many other speaker systems out there. does it sound better than the others? don't know. but i really don't care either. as for people bashing a speaker system that might not work with a 2 watt amp, 99% of the speakers made would not work with a 2 watt amp, so what does that mean? i guess i better sell my $4k speakers because they don't work with 2 watt amps, not even 125 watt amps.
