Basically none of us have a problem with well heeled audiophiles spending large sums of money on fancy looking and to large extent very nice sounding equipment since it is well within their rights to spend their money however they please. What we do have a problem with is the audiophile world, which includes the manufacturers, the press and audiophiles, believing that very expensive, fancy looking equipment sounds any better than plain looking, less expensive equipment because looks and price have very little to do with just how well a given piece of equipment will sound. Only careful unbiased listening tests , i.e. non-sighted or blind listening tests, coupled with meaningful measurements can provide that information.
