Twelve years ago i would have been envious for any costlier "high end" piece of gear ...

 Now i almost pity those buying many "high end" gear...

I own a  "high end" dac which cost nothing and a flagship headphone bought for peanuts...

I am lucky but i study a lot before buying them ...

A $50,000 DAC is an investment?

l have never considered hi-fi equipment as an investment.

Every time l make a monetary investment l normally see in the small print…

Disclaimer….. 

Your investment can go up or down.

l would expect in this case a new item $50K DAC “investment” can only go down.

One good financial reason why not to buy at full retail. Now a $25K one second hand may be a sound financial reason why to, and a different story.

A DAC is a poor investment. Next year there will be something better and cheaper.
