Audiophile stuff tend to be very $$$ and its the sort of the stuff they like to buy on their own to buy the very best for the price, I wouldn't suggest you buy that.

Same as audiophile, people tend to buy their own shit. I dont like having excessive kitchen gadgets cluttering my space. BUT fancy ingredients are always welcome. Saffron, truffles, high-end olive oil, hazelnut oil, Limoncello, Prosecco...
Edit : I saw that your budget is 200$ dang,
Le Creuset is a bit overrated. I've cooked with dutch ovens like this and this and there is very little difference other than the price tag.
I feel like pot/pan wise I could live quite comfortably with just my 10 in cast iron skillet and a medium enamel coated cast iron pot (like this: http://www.amazon.com/Le-Creuset-Signature-Enameled-Cast-Iron/dp/B0076NOGPY/ref=sr_1_1?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1404657044&sr=1-1).
The skillet has high sides so can be used for more than just browning/frying.
The pot can also go into the oven and thus can be used for roasts and braises.

I own the cheaper BIFL items i listed and they have been AMAZING so far. you really cant beat the quality/ price ratio for the cheaper things i listed. if you want a better chef knife all the options i gave you would be excellent but just know that you could go crazy looking at all the different brands.
You sure you want it? If you can pay cash then I'd sell it for 220, I was just going to post it on amazon and ebay used for 240 with shipping to undercut amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B0076NOGPY/ref=olp_f_used?ie=UTF8&f_used=true&f_usedAcceptable=true&f_usedGood=true&f_usedLikeNew=true&f_usedVeryGood=true
