Just noticed this, for all of you still on the fence about purchasing or upgrading, only 11 more days before prices go up 5%.


A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

You're right. Doesn't show on the home page but as soon as you go to "Products" you see two prices -- current and "new".

Looks like this is a US only thing, presumably driven by exchange rate, ie gold and oil getting expensive and Canada having a lot of both... (in addition to good speaker designers ).

EDIT -- I have to admit, doing a quick correlation in my head the price delta seems to be more a function of weight than of cost, ie maybe this is driven by changes in shipping costs rather than exchange rates ??

Canadian prices will be up later in the day - it's mostly shipping cost increases, and metal costs which have risen dramatically. The Canadian price increase is slightly less though to take the dollar into account.
