Cabasse Karissima speaker puts you in poor house

Have you ever had nearly $25,000 just lying around? While you could certainly buy iPods for almost everyone you know, what about if you threw your dollars at a snazzy speaker? That's right, just one speaker. Not a set, but one piece of high-end gloss combined with various audio technologies for a bunch of pretty pennies.

The Cabasse Karissima speaker, as BornRich points out, comes in three different finishes and offers something called "Tricentric technology" to basically provide the best sound possible for your dollar. While it may perhaps put out kick-ass audio as its manufacturer claims, will it really sound 25 times as good as a $1,000 speaker? And isn't that too much to pay, too?

Of course, it's probably no worse than dropping $25k on a ring holding a gem with a dead loved one's DNA integrated into it.
