Almost everything technology oriented goes down in price. Computers, cell phones, televisions, most audio equipment. Gas goes up and down, thought overall up. Much like any commodity in which usage is increasing. Copper was very very good to me!
Fed rate increase = lower hifi prices?
Will the recent rate hike meant to slow down the economy result in lower hifi prices? Seems everything shot up during Covid. Will we now see some relief?

How do you come up with these ideas? If the rates go UP, the Mfgs,& the home buyer pay more for borrowing $$$. That means mfg price increase and home buyer & renter payments go up
These rates are VERY LOW. IE Gas prices are very near doubled. That’s close to 100% NOT the 41% posted. Diesel fuel hit an all time high this past week. It is $5.29 here where its cheaper than a lot of places. this effects EVERY product because most everything is shipped at some point via Truck which uses diesel. Used cars were up 35%. I do most of the grocery shopping and can assure you that 10% is NOT ACCURATE for food. Hamburger was 3.50 LB Now it is $4.50-$5. That is 30-35%. coffee which was $6 is now $8.50. Thats about 45%. And consider this. the Cost of living index does NOT INCLUDE food, gas & housing. The market dropped bu over 1000 points yesterday. And as we speak the DC politicians spending $33 Billion more of OUR $$$, Not on us though Google Klaus Schwab, The World Economic forum, The great reset. I suspect what is coming will make 2008 look like a walk in the park. So buckle up folks. We have very few friends in DC. A D or R means nothing They have sold US out As @nonoise has said
And why not? We do nothing to stop them |
@deludedaudiophile Not sure I agree the prices come down, but for sure we get a lot more for the money? |
