Funny thing is: at the price both @daftcombo and I got the 906s, these would have been the cheapest of all the shootout... (Yes, even cheaper than Q150, no kidding). While for you, living in Singapore, it should be the opposite, right?
Yes, Focal never had great pricing in our country. Neither does KEF. ATC passives have amazing pricing on the contrary - to the extent I give grudging recommendations for the SCM7 passive. For instance, the SCM19 was on sale recently for over $600 less than the UK price (about the amount to VAT not paid with export sets, which is impressive because it means the dealer absorbed our local sales tax). Harbeth and PMC on the contrary are sold at around the same price or with even more margin than domestically. Marantz amps also had great pricing last I checked, but they don't manufacture any desirable amps now.
