"Then how do you explain the fact that high-end salons have a steady
stream of customers, many of them repeat customers?"

For the same reason astrologers and fortune tellers have a steady
stream of customers. High-end folk sell image and hope that the
marketing
pitch is really true and all the perceptions the brain can conjure
tell
them it is true, as the choir of their peers and the audio mags cheer
them
on, just like believers in astrology and esp.

What you say is partly true. I see no point in assessing the
percentage.
But
the high end also includes components of great merit.
In an argument, the middle ground gets lost.

Do you believe there is no middle ground?

The real High in high end is still almost exclusively speakers. While it
may be possible to find gear that has some problems passing a signal that
sounds different from the source being fed to it, it is more difficult
than
finding speakers that sound different.

Then you must be a real high end piece, Mikey, as you are a perfect parrot
of Arny Krueger.

So, by your reckoning, it's bad to reapeat the truth? What diffference does
it make who said it, as long as it is the truth?
