Me too! .....No, its not you, I think that the highend audio industry is living a lie. The system in the Odessey room had the pic with the total cost of the system($5500) in the room and it sounded very good. i found only a small (I'm talking micro) improvement to the Wilson's powered by the Audio Research monos which cost 12-15 times as much as the Odessey room. I foresee the high end market shrinking even more drastically than it already has in the future, and I felt that vibe through out the fest.
