Why has focal raised their prices so much on Sopra line

I was looking at the Sopra 2 ,thinking about buying it ,it is a very good speaker it has not changed 
in 5 years thst I can see ,but the price has increased $4,000. Thst sounds like gouging to me ,
from $15 k to $19 k  if thatis thecase  the Wilson Sophia2 is a better speaker for the same price 
as well as night and day better resale value .

Because they can ,they used the virus and shortages to raise 20% for others did 

they had to follow suit.that’s why you are far better off to buy used .

totally unlike used cars That went up 35% ,used speakers have been stable 

and plenty of used gems out there .just be patient ,with summer coming soon 

that is always best time to get your best deals when Audio is slower.

My friend bough5 the Sopra2  with a couple cables WWorld ,and AQ 

and Perrotta consulting gave him a very attractive deal. If you want New then 

Anthony is a very good dealer I have even dojng business with him for years.

+1 clearthinker    The market really is the market.  Period.  IMHO there is no other explanation for a 120K DeRanged Rover or a 1m diamond.  Neither is particularly rare,...certainly not needed.

The very best toward achieving your audio goals.
