PMC vs. Salk Sound Speakers. Which is better?


PMC speakers out of England have come on like a freight train in recent years including being awarded an Emmy for outstanding performance as speakers in mixing sound tracks for top motion pictures. Their high end home line of speakers always get good reviews but their prices seem very high compared to other speakers. Salk appears to make great speakers at much lower prices. For example, the Salk Veracity HT3 costs $6K and the PMC PB1i cost $14K. Has anyone compared these brands and which do you think is better?

The whole hifi industry -- where $200K speakers are the new 100K speaker, and the landscape is littered with 1m/2m cable runs that each cost as much as good cars -- and in selecting a product to bash as overpriced, you choose a nice looking $14K pair of tower speakers??
Mclsound,
If that's true, then I can at least understand why you're upset. Charging $900 for basic replacement grilles is not what you'd expect from a company that took pride in its work, ownership of its products, and prioritized customer satisfaction & loyalty.

If you'd included this valuable context in the opening post, then this thread might have gone down so much better.
