In Reply to: "but there must have been some outrageously priced gear then as well."... posted by MMasztal on January 14, 2011 at 08:13:16:
Then somewhere around the 1980s (around the same time as 'cables' as a botique market began) the prices started going up.. FAST. Many products doubled in price nearly overnight. For example: Infinity IRS was $20,000. (Probably the most expensive speakers of all at that time) suddenly within a few years the SAME system was $70,000. Many other products had the same steep rise in prices. Of course they were model upgrades... (yeah sure).
Wht annoys me is that up until the 1980s, i could afford the best stuff made (if i wanted to spend the money) After the 1980s, No way could i EVER afford the best audio products. The prices just went crazy.
