Mtx Headphones

[Trusting]

No. Because they are gullible.

No, because they sound that good....

Its like saying why would anyone pay $80,000 for a new Mercedes when they can buy a Kia for $15,000.

It's also why my wife listens to her music on a $60 mp3 player and I listen to my music on a $1,500. Ipod rig.

She buys $300 shoes and I buy $25. Crocs.

Maybe we need a thread to discuss personal tastes and values???

If you would like to see a true example of conspicuous consumption take a look at this...(actually, I would love to own one).

OMG!!
My only question is: Why?
Why would someone buy a set of headphones that cost $3 Grand?

I know, because they can.

Do you think Elio will take two of those and some change for their autocycle.

$55K for a set of headphones is stupid; but anything Sennheiser does is outrageously priced.
For $55K I would have the band come over and perform it live.

Ummmmmm Would you?

I can see that continuing this discussion could lead to some hurt feeling and wounded pride, so I think I'll stop while no one is pissed at me....

Sounds like a reasonable plan.
