Well judging from the Zero stock of Pioneer or Onkyo entry level stocks in Europe this is either optimistic or assume Covid19 is responsible? Looking at the many complaints over reliability in Marantz reviews I'm starting to fear for my options for a next affordable amp. What the hell is going on? Yeah a global pandemic has made sourcing things difficult. I saw an article that demand for electronic components for consumer articles are surging along as well as some other industries....it wasn't this article I saw but same sort of thing https://www.livemint.com/technology/tech-news/chips-are-in-hot-demand-and-that-s-a-problem-11610731545599.html I ordered a particular bike part in early November, was out of stock but due in between 12-22nd, then moved to sometime in January maybe, now maybe late spring.....bicycles being another industry that covid has increased demand in.
