Free market feedback...bring back the 1500 watt amp! 73 de Greg-N4CC -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Doug Person Sent: Thursday, September 09, 2010 8:58 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KPA500
It's never as simple as that. I think announcing a product when its on its final approach is fine. I think getting tons of feedback on what you're about to invest heavily in is good business. Maybe the truth of the earlier amps was that there just wasn't enough positive response to them. Maybe this time they used all the input from the previous attempt to refine the price point and feature set. Maybe everytime someone here says the price is too high Eric makes another note. Or someone else says I'll order on the first day - is another note. This is free market research. Easy access to the most likely buyers. A big product mistake by a small company like Elecraft could sink them. I think they took a LOT of notes on the road to completing the K3. Nobody can argue with the results. And when the KPA-500 is released, it will be based on tons of feedback.
