I think the issue lies in the way the prices were quoted and would concurr with Herman. In fact I'm quite certain. When I first looked at the speakers I ended up with the 2000 Swiss retail price list and the prices were all for 1 speaker. By the way in 2000 the price in Switzerland was 5940 francs for the plain (non piano finish) version - one speaker. I really don't think there has been any large increase.
What's up with Piega P-10 prices?
Under the Audiogon Blue Book, the new price in '98 is listed as $4997. Since several used P-10 pairs have been listed on Audiogon recently with the new price quoted from $10k to 12K+, I wonder where the discrepancy is occurring? I checked the Blue Book on the new price listed for P-8, and these are priced in the threes, new, so the BB prices listed seem to be consistent.
Can the Swiss franc have been so devalued???
