Are all audio components overpriced? It seems when I try to trade in a used piece that I paid 2000 for and I'm offered 175, I wonder if I paid too much in the first place.
Also, many of us have found that the power cord, which is the last few feet in the chain you describe, vegasears, can make a huge difference despite the seeming adsurdity of it.
Point of clarification: margin and markup are two different things. A product that yields a 50% margin (from sales price) has a 100% markup (from cost). 20% margin is 25% markup, 33% margin is 50% markup, etc.
