    This is crazy. With all these ridiculous prices, it feels like 2-channel world all over again where you have to spend a FUCKLOAD before you get anywhere. It reeks of "spinning the wheel".
    On a brighter note, I was happy to see the "real-world" priced rooms that John Darko over at dar.com suggested to be included at the RMAF. But I was hoping someone could go over and teach those poor sods how to position the speakers carefully, just to give them a fighting chance.

    My suggestion- You techy folks here at SABF should make/mod a headphone to display at one of these major events and show them how its done. I feel creativity is best served by a budget so if you can keep it cheap that'll be great. Hell, i'll pitch in cost-wise.

    This is gold. I love all the Head-Fi conspiracy stuff with a limited cabal ensuring revenue for big companies.
    I may go and complain about people being prepared to pay insane prices for headphones and see what happens.

    Thanks for all the impressions.
