Since that's only a million for one speaker, I figured I could find a pair for $2 million.
Now you have the whole front sound stage from Transmission Audio.

Impressive, yes? But let me run this by you: six MF/HF panels and six woofer panels (and a small nuclear generator to power them all), to make the truly ultimate 6.1 sound system, the $6 million home theater. We can build it. We have the technology.
jajaja this is gratifying

Made for guys like me. I have one set in my bedroom. Fills the room nicely with sound.

I put it on two of my credit cards. Making monthly payments of $28,000 a month on each card. Makes David Letterman sound pretty good.

No need to make any assumptions that any of these sound good solely on their price tags. That would be an error in reasoning. However, it would be interesting to actually be able to critically listen to them and see if they are really worth the price tag given to them.

No assupmtions made. Just an observation of the price tag.

Even if you weren't able to distinguish between these speakers and a live symphony, I still wouldn't pay 2 million for a set of speakers.

Heck I would just buy the symphony.
