Everything is more expensive now.
Just getting the raw components to build drivers is getting more expensive, and since I don't think SVS is building their own Drivers, consider that their source had to change pricing due to raw goods and shipping costs, then SVS has to cover the cost of 1-way Shipping, plus the percentage they need to cover for their return shipping. Where are the Amps assembled for the Subs; is SVS building them?
This has been happening everywhere, and it's not just because of Covid.
My concern is this will continue to roll through global economies for at least another cycle or even two.
Buckle up kitty cat.
