listen to Bang and Olafsen's audio equipment...it's incredible, but definitely not so incredible that it warrants multi-thousand dollar price tags per piece. $15,000 CD player? I'll stick with my JVC. $6000 for a 12" amplified subwoofer? Hmmm. They have a wooden 20-CD box that mounts on a wall or sits on a table...damn thing costs $450. Another aluminum CD-rack that holds 150 discs is over the $1000 mark.
