Goldmund Eidos 20

When we first saw the price we were blow away that a company would create a Blu-ray player with a $16,900 sticker. Then we saw it was produced by Goldmund. Continuing their reign of offering consumers insanely overpriced products for those with more money than they know what to do with, the company has just released a Blu-ray player more expensive than most compact automobiles. The Eidos 20 BD Blu-ray player includes an AC-Curator power supply circuit, a Magnetic Damper for lowering read errors and an ugly chassis.
