I suspect a main bulk of owners of very expensive headphone/iem setups are chinese kids from China, they have rich parents who are probably corrupted govt officials and I even suspect there are less Japanese stax owners than chinese. When edifier , a chinese company, bought over stax , the company produces and sells T8000 amp which sold over USD5000 . Many members of stax mafia eg. sprizter , kevin gilmore are of opinion that they are extremely overpriced. I heard the amp myself and i didn't think its a major upgrade from SRM727. Heck I am a fan of SR009 , love it alot but i still think its overpriced. ORIOLUS , a new japanese brand of IEM , their top in line model is selling for USD 2000 and its made in CHINA!!. I have many friends told me similar things , iem that cost thousands , contain 7 to 8 balanced armature drivers , don't sound very good and they are made in China. Imagine the profit margin
