The ultimate high end thread - (includes Meridian's $65K DSP8000) - (pics)

Spent my sunday afternoon in Stereo Exchange with some vinyl/audiophile buds, had my camera with me.

We started off with the Sooloos wireless system, hooked up to Meridian's DSP8000. Are you sitting down? Good. The DSP8000 is $65,000. Next to the DSP8000 is the Sonus Faber Amatis, a relative bargain at $30,000. Didn't listen to those, but I know 'em well. I like Meridian sources better than their speakers. The Sooloos system is great, intuitive and easy to use, but it is expensive. A plethora of McIntosh gear on the rack. I think there is over half a million dollars in this room alone.

The DSP8000 are self powered. The Sooloos was hooked up directly to the DSP8000. It sounded fantastic. $65K fantastic? Well, everything is subjective.
