If you take the pre VAT number and convert it works out to around $10,500...... don't know if that is what they will really charge but if it is even close then I would say its more than fair to charge less than 50% of a new unit for existing V4 customers.

Joel, but how can they use anything except a broad brush. They can't give you specific statements tailored to each individual and their home/ listening space. It unfortunately has to be based on some common standard- if that is the judgment of Bob Stuart/ the pros at Meridian then I am willing to trust them. If they betray that trust then they will be the ones to lose in the end and I am sure they are well aware of that.

Best regards,
