Focal Electra BE prices

[sngreen]

I have been noticing Focal Electra 1037 be, 1038 be prices are not what they used to be. They used to be in the range of 6k-7k Euro here in Europe, and now are only slightly above 2,000 Euro. What are the most obvious reasons for it, especially as the prices for everything else do seemingly go up now. Would they be worth buying today, used of course, or are Electa's not as what they were aiming to be?

That’s amazing but then again they were launched in 2005 so a bit old!
They are probably trying to liquidate their inventory!

With the introduction of the 1000 Be series in 2005, Focal slipped its exclusive, high-performance beryllium tweeter out of the stuffy-looking Utopia series and into a sleeker, more stylish, more modern form.

Well, then you're lucky because nice used sets of the 1038Be are still going for around $6000 here in the US.
