I can never get enough of those super outrageous stereo systems priced out of the reach of almost everyone in the world. They may have amazing sound quality (although that’s debatable and completely subjective) and unusual materials of construction, I hardly think that paying tens of thousands of dollars for any stereo system is a reasonable exercise. Actually, it should qualify one as certifiable. But, that doesn’t stop the fun of writing about systems like the Sound Carrier 300B, tapestry-lined hardwood case and all.
Audiophiles are a strange group. They are willing to spend ridiculous amounts of money on anything that will guarantee them the purest form of musical reproduction known to man. The Sound Carrier 300B is definitely a stereo system that was designed with this group in mind. The Sound Carrier 300B is part of the exclusive Aurum series from Tehnicki Centar Krklec of Croatia that promises to fulfill any audiophile’s quest for auditory perfection. Built on a gold plated copper chassis, this music system is loaded with high-end components.

The Sound Carrier 300B features transformers built on double C-cores and Mundorf Silver Gold Oil coupling capacitors. It sports 2W tantalum Audionote resistors, Cardas speakers and RCA terminals, together with 300 B Western Electric tubes and Mundorf and Audionote wiring. And if all of that gets you excited, you’d better get out your wallet. The Sound Carrier 300B will cost you 12,000EUR (about $17,200). You can enjoy your ubersound on the deck of your $100,000,000 yacht.
