All those :)))))) got me confused - you serious???, but speaking as a
musician, 25k will buy you a semi-pro digital recording studio these days.
Entirely ludicrous to spend more on reproduction technology than origination
technology. The best studio amps/preamps don't even approach those costs.
Like spending more on a TV than on the movie camera.
Ever sat in a recording studio and listened to playback off a 24-track
digital master? I have.
