Edit: Upon rereading my post above, I'm afraid I still wasn't sufficiently clear. To clarify, the discussion prior to my original post raised the issue of pricing. With my post I intended to raise the issue that for those buyers interested in seeking it out, Sougas can, or at least could, be had at a significant discount in the grey market. It was to that difference that I asked others to "make of it" what they would. I was perhaps being overly broad - or lazy - when I suggested that it could be partly attributed to distributor "issues," although for buyers the price could be just that. The applicability of the word depends on the point of view, I suppose. I'm not in the audio business, so I hold no opinion for the reason for the mark up. I should add that I don't have a problem with people making profits for their work and support dealers by buying new.

I also erred in the fractional description of the price and reported it to be significantly higher than the amount that the unit was offered to me at.

To be clear, I did not mean to suggest that there are delivery problems in the current chain. Best of luck with the brand.
Hi Kev, not a problem at all and I do understand about the pricing issues that have been raised on the other forum. It's unfortunate, but it is what it is. I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't something that I was missing. If there were any issues then we would address them for sure. Thx for the clarification! Appreciate it. Bob
