European Speaker Price Increase


The European speaker prices are killing me. I just can't pull the trigger on purchasing anything that is imported from Europe because they all seem to be increasing the prices due to the fall of the American Dollar.

Seriously, if I had bought a pair of JM-Renaud Euterpe speakers 3 months ago I would have paid $1995 - The EXACT same speaker now is $2895 - $900 more!! It will plague me until I am old and gray knowing that I missed the boat on the lower price.

The European speaker companies have to be loosing American sales because of this. I have considered the Jean-marie speakers, which I never got to audition and I have considered the Dali Ikon 6's, which I have audition (not sure they are right for me), but I couldn't pull the trigger on either one, mostly because I realized that I would have been paying way more than what I would have several months ago.

Sooooo......Do you think I will get more bang for my cheap, cruddy, American dollar by sticking with an American made speaker?
