Understand but a 25% increase! Maybe 10 maybe 12-15%. Soon dealers will be adding a fee on top of MSRP like car dealers are currently doing. For the PH10 not an issue for me b/c I already own one.
Demand is exceeding supply and more folks have lots of disposable income. The free market is like a slow auction. Look at the price of original Western Electric 300B tubes—it’s not even a case of price anymore. Serious collectors with wealth just want what they want.
@noromance people that are buying gear in this price range are usually not real wealthy, yes the real wealthy with lots of disposable income don't care as much as us who are "getting by" but still are looking for equipment that shoots above its price like the PH10. Just saying.
