The Economy.. will hi end audio mfgs lower prices?


.
The state of California just laid off 20,000 employees. National unemployment is at a 30 year high.

Will there be a shake-out in high end audio? Will we continue to see $10k preamps and $30k amps?

According to the article below, prices of most consumer goods, especially big ticket consumer goods are going down.

If they can't or won't lower prices then it is imperitive to take other action . This can take the form of a no charge extended warranty , free shipping , free cables , discount on another item , delivery and setup something to show that they value you as a customer and appreciate your buisness ! This is what I expect in a good economy and demand in a poor one !

There are many retailers selling the same item . You can vote the good ones in and the bad ones out with your purchases . I do . It's your money and your choice !

I will now turn this soapbox over to the next one ?

Thank you .
