Good day po master.
Newbie lng po ako, nabasa ko po yung thread nyo dahil madami nag aadvice na i should consider your speakers. pero na basa ko po ito kaya ito po tanong ko. nasabi mo po na bumili ka ng better tools and add manpower to have a more efficient produciton, d ba po pg mas efficient mas mura? bat po tumaas yung price? Unless mas gumanda yung quality kung ganun ok lng. pero kng ganun pa rn ung product sayang yung pg bili mo ng gamit. di ba? Just thinking lng po. Sana hindi kayo magalit.

Hi, It is perferctly alright for you to ask diy_master about the decision for increasing
the SRP of A-audio speakers. After all we live in a free country.
When I was first informed that A-audio speakers would increase in price.
I was initially taken aback because as a consumer I always want to buy anything at the lowest price possible.
And I was also looking forward to complete my HT speaker set.
The reason was explained to me properly and I finally saw the whole picture.
1. diy_master's speakers are world class speakers (lesleyc mentioned the Titus Floorstanders sound like
they cost 65k)
The speakers are not cheaply made.
2. Previous price of the speakers were sold very close to cost. A mere 15% only I think.
Can the 15% profit cover the salaries of all the hardworking craftsmen that put effort into making these
speakers sound as good as they sound?
3. diy_master is giving the opportunity to anyone to make a profit out of his speakers (A very thoughtful
business decision)
4. Lifetime service warranty (at times he would even drive by himself to a members home and fix the
speaker himself)
Now putting this all into perspective,the increase in price is justified.
Even then, the new price is still very competitive.
Take for example the Genesis Bookshelf (php4,500)
To get similar sound quality you would need to spend php10,000 on other brands.
I have made several purchases from diy_master and I never had any problem at all in terms of quality and service.
I also consider myself to be one of A-audio's biggest fans.
I suggest you schedule and audition the speakers in his showroom in Bicutan.
The quality matches and at times I dare say better than many established brands.
