Why do we 'need' these expensive toy? If you haven't tasted Godiva Chocolate, it is hard to explain why a small lump of chocolate should cost $10 when you could get a much larger piece for $.55 in the supermarket. The cheaper one, mind you, doesn't taste that bad, either. It's just that once you are spoiled, you dig the taste of the expensive manna. Some of you obviously are audio-virgins.

But for people well jaded into Esoteric/EMM/dCS that kind of digetal stuff it's peanuts. Enrico,

People can be such self deluded fools! Back in the day, I used to work at Cinram - one of the largest record pressing plants in in the world - and you wouldn't believe what a hack job making records was. Superior product, my a55! From nodule infested nickel stampers, cheap regrind in the vinyl, to QC'ing done by third world labor that barely spoke english, anyone who thinks vinyl sounds better than digital is a total sucker...the kind that buys these turntables...and also convinces themselves that Monster cables really do sound better and are worth the price. Some egregiously ignorant morons out there... HAHAHA!!

The incorrect geometry of the arm can generate up to 4% modulation distortion. A turntable of this price should not have such a defect. Would you buy a tape recorder with 4% flutter?

Most 45 years old people can hardly hear more than 10 - 12 thousand HZ. Hence such an investment is more like investing on Gold and Diamonds rather than pretending you can hear the most silent whispers of such a brilliant piece of art. On the other hand a wealthy person is more than welcome to pay for his vanity the smart inventor of this equipment and tell his friends the story of how much he spent to buy the most expensive turntable in the worldJohn The most expensive turntable requires the ears of a dog.
