I have nothing against Honda other than the price.  If there was a comparable wheeled Honda to my Simplicity 9528 for a few hundred more, I'd probably go for it.  However, around here, an equivalent Honda is nearly double the price.  The Honda is an excellent snow blower.  I'll admit that it's probably a better overall machine than a comparable Simplicity  but  I don't think it's twice as good.  Not by a long shot.

Yes, Honda prices are high.  It is on the right side of the diminishing returns curve where 100% increase in price yields 20% increase in performance, if even that.  If high end audio follows this curve, it's a relative bargain, so to speak.
