Default Definitely... I am a bit of a recovering audiophile and...

their stuff has always been just shiny, pretty and neat but never sounded as good as some other things that cost less than half of what they charge. That being said their products are very cool and I like that aspect, but I would never even think about buying anything from them. In fact I've owned some of their equipment (given to me) and turned right around and sold it... B&O and Bose are basically fancy pacakged crap!

You speak the truth, B&O is not audiophile quality...

Default the R&D that goes in spatial imaging can't be easily duplicated with

just upgrading some speakers, deck and adding a sub.

Elimated those options when stock plumbing was replaced for a better exhaust note ;-)

Default There are a lot of people that spend that much on aftermarket systems ya know

not saying I agree with them but if you can afford a new S8 then you probably can afford $7800 (per kimchees post) for the upgrade
