World’s most expensive speakers will cost you nearly $5,000,000

According to Hi-Fi Choice magazine, the Hart Audio D&W Aural Pleasure Loudspeaker "can do things that no other speaker can." And it damn right better do some amazing things — at $4.72 million, this speaker is perhaps the most expensive ever created.

This ultra-expensive speaker is a special edition — only one 18-karat gold pair will be made. (You can buy a cheaper version cast in bronze for $62,800.) It features some very high-quality components: a 200mm polypropylene bass driver and a 25mm aluminum magnesium dual concentric treble driver, for starters. It's also very, very heavy at 110 pounds.

It's probably not the most attractive design for your decor — or, really, the decor of anyone well off enough to have $5 million to blow on a one-of-a-kind speaker. But if you care about sound quality enough to actually consider a purchase, we're not sure the package it comes in will matter that much to you.
