In the US they market the Array series and the 9800, why not the various blue faced monitors they sell in Japan (with the latest US made drivers) if the high end market is limited here? How many 12000.00 systems are they going to sell, compared to 4000.00 Studio Monitor systems in Japan? Most japanese homes are too small for those systems anyway, I spent quite some time living there and I can't see these large monitors selling there. Sell the 20,000 dollar systems in Japan and bring the blues back over here. A pair of 4338's would go for some massive bucks here, if they weren't so heavy I'd pick up a pair on my way back from Korea next time I go.,

GM and Ford are making similar mistakes with Euro specs cars they don't build here. Add to that the environmental rules against diesels (which the green peace Europeans have no problem owning) and it makes you wonder WTH is going on.
