    High Fi audio is actually legit to a point. Over $300 (well, $400 now with tariffs) is when the scam begins

      Not necessarily. For headphones it can go higher. I’m currently looking at hifiman unveiled.

        This sequence of comments has me cracking up.

        “I need a thing to make suckers out of morons”

        “You should sell them audiophile shit”

        “Well… some audiophile shit is ok… up to point… after that, you’re def a sucker!”

        “Actually… you’re not a sucker at all if you spend a bunch of money on this shit. Here, take my money!”

          I get what you’re saying, but there are basically only 3 companies whose headphones are worth 300-600€. Said companies took decades, mountain of innovations and patents to get where they are now.

          If you can actually get that kind of immersion and quality cheaper - I’m all ears. Literally

          Lol no, that is entirely different category, those are essentially limited edition engineering pieces. The consumer one is Ananda unveiled, which in my local shop goes for €460.
