New speakers or new car?

Somedays I wonder how you all have BICYCLES with a msrp higher than my 1900 cc rocket on me crotch Yamaha Raider or my Vulcan Nomad..

I should start selling toilet paper rolls with a 15k msrp...because R&D and I gotta keep the lights on ( boo hoo, woe is me,  i need some patriotic pity to keep my lights on, my friends)...

There was a time in the early 2000's when my bikes + my wife's bikes, cost more than my car! NOT motor bikes.

At the time was racing (up mountains) as an ultra veteran. My Audio systems (NYC & VT) together cost about the same as the total of car + bikes.

Had a neighbor who bicycled professionally. NASA astronauts could only dream of having such engineered product.

Will always have a fondness for him. Did a little work around his place and as payment bought me my first REL acoustic Subwoofer 🔊. 

This has been stated before so it’s not new info.
It is idiotic to pay for a car or speakers on credit, this is insane thinking!

You think your underwater the day you buy your car, buying audio equipment will go down in value more and much harder to sell the more money they are. Let me know which audio product that has gone up in value? Go out to Agon and USAM and look at good gear bought months ago and it’s down 50%. How many people are wanting to buy a pair of $750k magico’s/wilsons even at 50% off? For many Porsche models, they aren’t losing money and some of them are getting bought off auctions for 5x their original cost.

The high end audio manufactures decided to create this ultra boutique to make some of their products that ask 100x what it costs to make. If these manufacturers would make the process to make these products more repeatable, it would cost much much less.
