Correct Dolf. The problem is this must be demonstrated in a proper environment. In the US that just doesnt exist for the most part. Btw- B&O has a digital path system too. I agree with VK. What Ive seen from M is great product but there is a problem with the connection to the marketplace. Unless you have a good connection, all the superiority in the world doesn't matter. Case in point: Apple Stores. Yes, this would be a terribly expensive proposition for M- BUT- consider the "positive" side of the financial meltdown: deals on retail space can be had. M should look to do a few strategically placed M showrooms and they should look to a partnership with a flat panel display company along with possibly a control system company. You should be able to walk in and see 3 levels of systems. Entry, mid, and crazy bonkers.
