In the US it is understood that it is without tax. No retailer in the US shows prices with tax because the tax can be different even if you live in the same state, but live one city over.Bloomaudio says 3699 usd ,dont says 3699 plus taxes,thats bad info

Bloom Audio is a specific example of a retailer that avoids tax. Think Audio46 is another. But most retailers have it.Bloomaudio says 3699 usd ,dont says 3699 plus taxes,thats bad info

No worries, I didn't think it was targeted at Bloom, I just wanted to put it out there that they are an amazing retailer. Audio46 is great as well although I tend not to purchase from them to avoid sales tax.

I wouldn't call them for avoiding the tax. It is rather that they sell with tax included. Very different definitions! LolBloom Audio is a specific example of a retailer that avoids tax. Think Audio46 is another. But most retailers have it.

I would have to sell my WA5 LE 2nd Edition to finance the purchase of the SP3000. it’s not being used much anyway and I’m thinking about getting back into personal portable audio.
Just don’t buy it. This is what I decided after looking at the EU pre-order prices for the DAP and the Odyssey.But the thing is the same ,in europe the new model costs almost more 1000 euros ,the previous without usa taxes costed more 300 euros
