Correct me if my prices are wrong
-Morel Elate 6 (RRP:950) with a bit of negotiating possibly around 800ish

-Hertz HSK 163 (RRP: 532)

-Rainbow SLC 365/SLC 365 Kick (RRP: NFI probably mid 400s to mid 500s)...i gotta get the pricelist from mobile fidelity sometime

thats all that comes into mind...you have to spend a few hundred dollars more until you have a bit more choice

You won't be getting a pricelist from Mobile Fidelity any time soon as I understand it, you'll have to contact an authorised Rainbow dealer and get a price. And the 365 Kicks are around the $700 mark from memory.

I don't understand why you couldn't get a pricelist from a distributor, it just gives more certainty on what is available to a consumer at his or her budget. Imo i think it'll be better for business, based on the fact that if a person is to give a recommendation at least they'll know what to recommend within the price range. I'm not going to call a dealer and ask for every price for all of Rainbow's speakers.

But i've emailed Mobile Fidelity before on queries of prices on the products they distribute and they were extremely prompt and helpful in their replies

I'm pretty sure BlakeyBoyR you would be pretty certain on the prices of the slc 365 kicks considering you have a set

Not too many manufacturers and distributors are keen on it.

Prices go up and down, so unless every consumer of every manufacturer is on a mailing list, they are a bit hard to get hold of to give them an updated list so consumers don't go into dealers and say, "Nah might, your price is wrong."

Yes, but I don't remember exactly to the dollar how much I paid.

DLS IR 6.2 or 6.3. or other thing else but not Focal. I found focal is hard to manage due to harsh tweeters. I even have problems trying to manage Utopia Be to sound smooth. Well it all depend on the music you are listenning to. you may found Focal suited your test just fine bot not for me la.
