I was recently notified by Rob Baretich, Director of Business Development at The Music Room, that PS Audio has decided to go to Direct-Sales-Only in the very near future. Could this mean significant cost savings for the consumer? I hope so!!
Who else is aware of this move by PS Audio?

I saw that in an email I got... but I can't afford their products, so it was inconsequential to me.

Perhaps their prices will indeed drop without the middle man involved.

Their products are indeed pretty expensive

Interesting... can not compete anymore with all the other direct sales? I wonder how long it will be before there are no more AV stores...all being Direct sales only?

While I do support traditional brick-mortar businesses and audio showrooms there is something I really love about the direct-sales model in that everything I try out is actually in my own system. When the company also pays for shipping both ways it's very hard for me to object : )
