[QUOTE="vingasoline, post: 6799515, member: 606723"] The problem is the internet and "B stock". Example- here in canada when PG was big and expensive, dealer cost was half of retail. Zx500 cost was $1200, that same amp online refurbished or B stock was 300. Pretty tough to compete with that.. All the big brands are available and very easy to find online for way less than any local stereo shop can sell for.. It's the manufacurers, they need to stop selling their refurbished products on the cheap. I have seen the price list on refurbished panasonic, and PG(back in the day), and most of the stuff is like 70 points below cost.. Back in the day we sold PG, Alpine, Kenwood, Jl Audio, Soundstream Today, it's Clarion, Kenwood, and exile. It sells cause it's cheap. [/QUOTE]
