Ok, I have to say that this is so bling it’s simply awful, but it is luxurious and therefore we at Lussorian have slavishly reported it. Is it the most expensive TV in the world? Quite possibly.
According to playfuls.com:
“This luxury television appeared at the Berlin consumer electronics fair IFA with a retail price of 100,000 euros (130,000 dollars), “
“The LCD panel from Italian maker Keymat Industries is plated with white gold and studded with 4 grams of diamonds.
Keymat, which said IFA was the first non-Italian fair where the model from its Yalos range was shown, added that US and Saudi buyers had already shown interest. IFA runs until Wednesday.
Last week, a German hi-fi magazine demonstrated at IFA what it described as the world’s most expensive music system.
In an annual demonstration of what a hi-fi lover would love to own, Audio magazine borrowed equipment worth 750,000 euros (975,000 dollars) to assemble the sound system which includes a 220-kilogram record-player costing 125,000 euros.”
The TV may not be my cup of tea but the mention of a $975,000, assembled sound system is really a mouth watering prospect.
This functional but excellent CD player would make the ideal luxury Christmas gift. With sleek, contemporary looks the Chord range of components make a nice change from the ubiquitous Bose or Bang and Olufsen.
The top loading CD mechanism is set within a solid die cast body, which sections off the player from the other components contained within. This keeps distortion to an absolute minimum.
The system includes RCA and XLR balanced analogue outputs, plus BNC SPDIF coaxial digital ensures compatibility with a wide variety of audio systems.
Quite simply a great little sound system by anyone’s standards.
The Halcro DM38 rises to almost one metre making it a bulky beast, but it’s worth it. Oh boy is it worth it!! Packing a punchy 180 watts per channel this amp doesn’t do it by half measures and is going to make a real statement to anybody using it. The entire unit has been honed to perfection right down to the circuitry and vented heat sinks. This makes the audio purity almost unrivalled and under normal volumes is under 0.0007%.
Weighing in at a hefty 120lbs this product really packs a punch in every respect and in our opinion rightly holds the crown of number one luxury amplifier on the planet. Retailing for £13,950 ($22,320) it’s not cheap but you are getting the ultimate amp which includes:

I’m not sure the Italians are well known for their high end sound systems but this might become so after the release of the Pathos Endorphin which is aesthetically stunning and offers almost unrivalled sound quality.
The key to this products exceptional acoustics are the cutting edge circuitry which extracts the very best sound possible from any CD - assuming your amplifier and speakers are up to the task.
Pathos say:
“If you look in the dictionary you’ll find the word ‘Endorphin’ stands for a neurochemical occurring naturally in the human brain, promoting the release of more dopamine and resulting in feelings of enjoyment and pleasure. So, with your favourite Cds in hand, you should be in for a sonic as well as an aesthetic treat! The tech specs are top notch: Endorphin uses a dual, fully balanced tube, class A zero feedback analogue output, that is preceded by dual differential 24-bit delta-sigma DACs with a conversion rate of up to 192Kz. Dynamic range is 120Db. Output connectors give you a choice of balanced XLRs or RCA phonos. Potentially, this is a landmark player…”
This product retails for a cool £4,500 ($7,200).
