Hi Roger,

 Perhaps because they are used here:

http://www.wavac-audio.jp/sh833_e.shtml

 which retails for $175,000
## and that's just  a ONE channel monoblock amp.

##  check out the usa dealer

The SH-833 puts out 150w  per channel.. and is 
$350,000.00  US funds !

Maybe he is down the street from bear-el ? 

Do folks actually buy this stuff?   For $350K, one could
fly all over NA, attending concerts in front row seats, and
gargling brandy, and hob knob with the main act, after the 
show.  Perhaps hang out with some groupies.
