I see in Audio magazine's annual equipment guide that the most expensive
phono cartridge on the market is the Kiseki Lapis Lazuli.  It costs
$3500, and a replacement stylus is $2100.

Now, if you figure a stylus lasts at most 600 hours before it must
be replaced, you discover that it costs $3.50 per hour to play
records!  Wouldn't that affect your enjoyment of the music?
