In Reply to: RE: Veneer has become really expensive posted by Hornlover on April 9, 2021 at 08:28:59:
I was thinking commercially produced speakers. It seems like everything under a few grand is wrapped in laminates, although now you're making me wonder why.
If you don't need fancy, it looks like there are multiple options on that Tape Ease web site that would cost <$50 per pair of standmounts and <$100 per pair of small to medium floorstanders. If I assume a 6x markup from manufacturer cost to retail price, that's still not that expensive. I would certainly pay the difference for veneer. It's only the exotics that get really expensive.
Perhaps it's just that people prefer a laminate with a fancy pattern and gloss coat over a more traditional wood veneer.
