Avalon Pricing Policy?


Recently auditioned some new Avalon Ascendants and Indras and was impressed enough to consider seriously consider purchasing. However, the authorized dealer told me that it was Avalon pricing policy to only sell at MSRP. Is this the experience of others? Having previously worked in high end retail I am not one to pay MSRP so I walked. Too bad. The dealer missed a cash sale and I am still without speakers.

Peter s has the right approach. This eliminates all the the afore mentioned problems with retail merchandising.
Also, Avalon speakers are one of the better bargains in Audio. They can go head to head with much more expensive speakers, very musical.
Give a listen to the Reference 3a Grande Veenas if you like the sound of the Avalons.
