UPDATE

Good News and Bad News


The Good news I have my short order being sent to me next week! So will be able to supply a small number of them soon.

The Bad News Chris at VHaudio informed me of the price increase of all the caps across the board

Quote:
Hello. I hope business is going well for you!

As you know, numerous industries have been experiencing rapid increases in costs due to higher energy, transportation, and commodity prices, as well as higher labor costs.

V-Cap audio capacitors have not been immune to these increases. In the past, we’ve been able to successfully contain costs and stabilize pricing by buying increasingly larger volumes of materials, however this strategy has been maximized.

Rather than compromise the V-Cap product line by using inferior materials and/or less-skilled labor, we must share these increases with our customers.
We thank you for your business, and appreciate your continued support.

Best regards,

Chris VenHaus
I saw the price increase and its pretty significant. I will have to adjust the price of the products (both wood and metal versions) to reflect this increase.
