This is for real!

I have been shown a pair of stereo speakers in an advertisement which is available in this country from Len Wallis Audio at 64 Burns Bay Road lane Cove. They are hand made speakers. Made in France and are crafted to precision and rigorous standards. The Ad says;

Design you Can't ignore, Sound you won't believe

Let me add here that the following line should also be applied.

Design you Can't ignore, Sound you won't believe, with a price tag that will knock you for a six

They claim that the price is worth every cent. Just love how they make it seem affordable.

The Price here in OZ is $269,000 for a pair. Yes, that's right. A small apartment, half a house, two brand new A6 series AUDI's or 20 brand new small cars for a pair of speakers! they would want to be really damn good for that!

Even were I to have that sort of money, I would NEVER buy these. Think of how many people you could help with that. I have an expensive stereo now as I really love music and being surrounded by it, but I just cringed when I saw how much they were. No doubt there are a great many people who could afford these, and would not think twice about it, I certainly understand the feeling of knowing you have the finest money can buy, but WOW.

The speakers for those well heeled amongst the audience can find them at

Thanks, but no thanks.
