They should bundle these with high-end audio cables and a free B&O stereo. And Goldschlager. Same demo.
wait wait wait what is wrong with B&O because i have dreamed of owning any one of their products for years.
They aren't terrible. But their appeal is a bit more architectural than electroacoustical. Ever seen a B&W Nautilus? They're the perfect example of "things that look cooler than they sound". I'll say this. B&O stuff looks cooler than most other stuff. But it does not sound better commensurate with its prices.
More than that! https://www.cockeyed.com/inside/goldschlager/goldschlager.html That's an old article too
I dispute the scientific basis of your link. https://www.flickr.com/photos/debcha/sets/72157600278056455/ It's probably 23 carat gold leaf. 23 carat leaf is 95.8% gold. 12.9mg x .958 = 12.3582mg of pure gold. There are 31,103.5 mg per Troy ounce. That means there are .000032151 troy ounces per mg. Gold is currently $12.26 per Troy ounce, so a single milligram of gold is worth 0.03942 cents. The amount of gold in Goldschlager, therefore, is worth $0.49 per bottle (48.712 cents as of 3:30 pm PST Oct 20 2018). I win.All of the gold in a one-litre bottle of Goldschlager weighed a total of 12.9 mg...As there was a small amount of silver detected, this indicates that the gold isn't pure and therefore would be worth slightly less.
