I have just seen this post from Chord announcing a reduction to their prices now that supply chain issues have resolved and costs have returned to pre-pandemic levels: https://chordelectronics.co.uk/2023...Tbmr-2dyBUsyyn0cdC1G0-JRCssKHhNxKVDE3od-OkEig
I wonder whether if the slowing down of the lower end of the high-end audio market may also be partly responsible for the decision.
Nonetheless, it is really refeshing to see a company reducing their prices to reflect the reduction in component parts required to make their products.
The question is, are other manufacturers likely to follow suit or is the only way up for prices (apart from Chord)?

(I appreciate that I am asking this question in knowledge of the likely responses.;))
