Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Currency Markets?

Live rate 1 GBP = 1.51 $US so 3379 GBP would trade for $5100. I suppose you could argue exchange rate historically since the speakers here now were made some other time, and of course goods prices are stickier than currency, but I don't think the GBP/$ has fluctuated that much, $0.25 or so over the last couple of years.

Some other type of "arbitrage" going on there.

Introduce an importer (necessary) and shipping, insurance, warranty service etc. and they like to get paid as well. Whether it's worth $2500 is up to the listener.
