No one would spend $20k for a miniscule difference. The difference is quite large and very audible. People spend big bucks on audio equipment because they audition and WANT IT. Far more entertaining and worth to them, nobody spends more money for equipment that doesnt sound better. That would be silly...

If you're part of the .00001% of the population who thinks they can hear a difference and who have the money to buy a $20K+ audio rig, more power to you. I prefer not to spend 20x the money to gain a miniscule increase in quality. chris
