The speakers in the link are $51,000 a pair. Audio Note does make a $165,000 one off version but it is a weird hard wired version with massive all silver external crossovers wired directly to the voice coils (so you can never change the speaker cables).

This is why you want to check the accuracy of links. Peter Breuninger also misquotes the price on the Paris link as those speakers are not $250k but under $50k.

Still very expensive but AN is nowhere in the running of most expensive loudspeakers.

Now that system in that link may be getting up to a million with the transport and DAC, preamp and Amp. The preamp is about $100k And I believe the CD player and DAC are around $175,000 - if those are the Gaku-On amps that might be another $200k - add the speakers and cables plus tax it's up to maybe $700k. Add their top turntable, arm, cart, and step up transformers and taxes - possibly a million for the whole thing.

Chump change for some.

But plenty of speaker makers make $50k+ speakers and plenty of them make more affordable products. AN is no different than any the vast majority of makers on that front - and have lower mark-ups than most.

A whole AN system for less than $5k - that's not too shabby - and you could spend even less.

U prostoriji nema skroro pa ništa na glatkim zidovima što će stvarati blagi eho. Prostorija uzana i dugačka ... Ako već ima toliko novaca samo za zvučnike, mogao je da iznajmi bolju prostoriju za prezentaciju.
