Yeah, I do think when looking at at least the outside box fit 'n' finish of a speaker for the money the B&W's are a bit overpriced, however they can sound very good.
I'd have to say that the most overpriced line in the B&W catalog has got to be the CM. DM's are overall very good for the money, and so are most of the CDM NT's and up into the Nautilus range. The CM's are clearer slightly than the DM's, but crap out on the bass and they can't handle large amp power or slightly elevated volumes for sh*t.
Polk speakers are also overpriced across the board, as are the newest Jamo lines (they've really lowered their quality on the low and mid tier speaker models).
Bose should be brought up on charges of consumer fraud.
