Disgusting price. Its only a couple of bits of metal and a few screws.
Shame on you A&H for ripping off your loyal customers…shame on you.
I’ve seen similar prices from other manufacturers, Soundcraft and Mackie included (actually 60 quid for a Mackie VLZ). It might be a couple of bits of metal but still takes an engineer to do the drawings, someone to manufacture it (probably in China) and ship it over to you. You shouldn’t blame A&H, a big chunk of the money will stay with the dealer or distributor, you are not paying £45 to A&H that’s for sure.
Yeah. Pretty normal for accessories. In US it is $50 retail.
The problem is volume. It’s probably a small number of people that need them so it costs more to manufacture.
I also thought it too expensive, so I made my own. By the TIME I finished I would have gladly given the U.S $50.
Well, I’ve ordered one…grumble grumble grumble
