Salk Future TBD

@jeffseight 

I was at that Arizona Speakerfest and clearly recall seeing and hearing the Salk speakers. I was hoping at that time that it would be an annual event.

this is horrible, is my first impression, for such a well regarded brand. I don’t understand this:

They simply did not feel confident they could market speakers at prices

what marketing? Salk is such a well-known brand, if you build it, they will come.

I think this thread will provide some context...

Increasing the price 20+% at a time when the whole country was bracing for a recessionary meltdown had to have severely hurt short term sales which might have scared the buyers...and then add to that the  concern that they  might have had as their business doesn't seem to revolve around the "pricier product".

Hope Jim had these folks sign an NDA with teeth. 

@snapsc wow, that's a big deal! CSS is a pretty amazing company and I see the challenges of running (merging?) two very different brands. I guess it's really not that simple. Very different philosophies.
