Hartke HyDrive Cab Price Increase?

Sign in to disble this ad
Anyone else notice at least the Hartke HyDrive 410 has a price increase? SamAsh has them for sale as $699.99. Is there any reason why they are $100 more than say, 4 months ago?

Anything using neo speakers has gone up in price. I believe China has put some new tax on all neo magnet material and unfortunatly that is where most of the neo magnets come from. The price of eminence neo speaekrs has almost doubled.

Talk about a buzz kill. I was close to picking up a Hydrive 1x12 then baaaam. Ended up getting an Ampeg SVT 210AV as my small cab rig. I do have a Hydrive 4x10 I got for $400. I love the cab, but $700 big ones. That's like my White Castle budget for a decade!

The price of the Hartke LH series heads went up too, so I don't think its related to that. I guess just overall inflation is the cause..

Not happy, as I was seriously thinking of picking up another Hydrive cab.

But let's face it, they're worth it.
