Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: i am glad that you...

doak, forgive me please. i really do not want to discuss my actual cost of the vsm mxe on this forum but i will tell you that my mark up is exactly 3.5 times on cost. industry standard is 4 to 5 times with some being higher as you know. the esotar tweeters, scanspeak woofers, crossover parts, super bam, z feet, cabinet finishing and packaging costs thousands of dollars and we still do not have any overhead factored in. all of the parts in this product are as jb indicated, first class, as they should be. everyone's preceived value rating is different because we all have things that are more important/exciting to us. all i can do is go by what they cost me to manufacture.
perhaps you heard a vsm m five years ago. nice speaker. but the vsm mme or mxe with a super bam are many levels above them. the best value is the vsm mme/sbam. at $9020 it is $2500 less, sounds virtually as good and is easier to make sound as it can. certainly a better value for many. i wonder why people talk only of the mxe?
best, b
