When you sit down and think about it those brands dont cost and arm and a leg..

You are forgetting that those companies have a warehouse full of product to store, that means they pay rent to the tune of $10,000+ per month.

They have multiple employees that do things from answering phones and emails to pulling products off shelfs, each of those employees brings home a paycheck for their work they perform.

Huge shipping costs from the cargo boat carrying the container from Korea to a port in the USA, Dock fees and taxes at the port, Trucking fees to bring the containers from port to the warehouse, Shipping prices from the warehouse to the retailers shop or customer.

Then you have your monthly bills from electricity, internet, water/sewage, heating/ac, phone, insurance premiums on your business and possibly employees.

I can keep going on about costs that add up quickly for a company of any size, and yet at the end of the day you are in business to turn a profit of some kind.

You think that a couple thousand maybe expensive now, but I remember paying over $1,200 for a 1000 wrms amp.

Back when amplifiers ran well over $1.00 per watt, if this would hold true today and with inflation a 10krms amp would run you $10 grand, not $1,800ish.

You would think that a seller in Korea would be able to drop ship for a seller here. Interested in how sample product process goes. Maybe we can all get samples. Lol

I can imagine a 1600 or 2600 amp at a low price.

How much power is the quoted amp? 12.5k? What other brand of amps would this be comparable to?

A DC Audio 10K i believe.....
