Why has focal raised their prices so much on Sopra line

Because they can ,they used the virus and shortages to raise 20% for others did 

they had to follow suit.that’s why you are far better off to buy used .

totally unlike used cars That went up 35% ,used speakers have been stable 

and plenty of used gems out there .just be patient ,with summer coming soon 

that is always best time to get your best deals when Audio is slower.

My friend bough5 the Sopra2  with a couple cables WWorld ,and AQ 

and Perrotta consulting gave him a very attractive deal. If you want New then 

Anthony is a very good dealer I have even dojng business with him for years.

I will have to see my options , maybe a open baffle like the 
spatial audio X3 or x5 it does everything well  with vh audio Odam capacitor 
upgrades better still. ?   Maybe the used market. The Wilson Sabrina X  are a exceptional  upgrade in trickle down technologies 
but these dealers suck , no discounts, and sales tax 
I will never pay sales tax ,and always get 15-20% off , 
as an ex dealer  I just can’t  do it otherwise .

I am just speaking my piece ,if people don’t like it that’s on them .
I just personally wanted to see if the product was upgraded over the last 5 years, since it has not time to move on .
I am just going to buy the New Wilson Sabrina X it is loaded with 
excellent trickle down technology ,and overall a more cohesive loudspeaker. I have heard them both .the only reason I was considering the Sopra is because their resale value was not That good vs Wilson and Wilson don’t discount much if any ,that’s the only down side.
