Yes ... There are the thin air level oxygen breathers that can and do purchase this strata of gear..... More than we think.
The vast majority of us toiling in the plebeian working class can only wish, for sure .
i recentjy saw a $400k+ system at an audio expo.... I lost count of the actual stratospheric price. It was replete with all NORDOST ODIN cabling .... (That's all of Speaker, ICs, and power cables .... Do the math just on those alone) ...... driven by a pair of near $100K mono blocks.(that's $~$100K each....sigh).
In brief....audio nirvana ....full stop ..... but certainly never in my world.
Just like the $million+ super cars for you to smoke the freeway 0-100 in a flash , if you have the coin.
