Another thing to consider is you're not just dealing with the consumer price concious mindset. There are people who cannot tell the sound of a quality setup from the mass merchandised stuff. For example, I had just saved and purchased my Mac MC-2505 & C-26 in 1971. I invited a friend over and let him audition the setup. I had Altec Valencias (still have them) for speakers and Bill's comment after listening was "I have an Airline stereo console at home that sounds just like that." I was mad and hurt at first but luckily I kept my mouth shut. After Bill left I got to thinking. Why were you mad? Was it because he didn't fill your ears with the correct responses you felt you had coming? He wasn't being funny or snide he really couldn't hear the difference. There are more people than you might think in that boat.
