"Oswalds Mill Audio makes $300,000 speakers from wood like ash,
cherry, and walnut-plus slate and special cast iron. The sound
quality is as good as the materials."

Not taking anything away from their artistic enterprise, but "Go play
yer guitar!" ; )

Sorry, Bill but "this'll have to do fer now"

That was *very good* playing! : ) My point was that a $500 guitar might
sound better than $300,000 speakers. There was a poster at
rec.music.makers.guitar.acoustic, now basically defunct, who frequently
wrote, "Shut up, and go play your guitar!". So I sort of stole his
line, but, lacking motivation to spend $300,000 on a speaker (is that
for a pair?), it felt like an appropriate reply. : )
