Incorrect. In the recording industry, the most expensive *single* pieces of equipment are microphones. It takes serious materials and tooling/technique to make a quality mic to have the correct impedences and frequency responses...now lets miniaturise it and package it to make it withstand "tactical" abuse. By definition, it is an electro-*mechanical* component, its way harder to do it right than it is to make a preamp or tuner.
