Genelec S30C original retail price

Hi there,

I bought a pair of Genelec S30C's a few months back. I was very happy to find them as I worked in a studio for years with the original S30's. I have owned and do own other speakers, but I like the S30's best. I seem to 'understand' where to bring my mix when working on these. Think I just got used to them over the years.

Now, my question is; since I bought these speakers secondhand (as they are no longer build anymore) what did they cost (retail) when new?
Thanks for any help,

Jan

Hi Jan,

It's difficult to compare prices from 10 years ago, but let's try. I looked at the price list from year 2000, and S30C retail price was approx. 10000 MK here in Finland. Direct conversion to Euro would be ~1700 EUR, but it's not correct because of different inflation percentage and cost-of-living index. If we take those into account, price of S30C would be around 2000 EUR.

Hi Ilkka,

Thanks a lot for your reply. It is because I need to give an estimate to my insurance company. I know can.

And to be clear, that price is for each speaker so 4000 EUR for a pair.
