This "cost" thread made me think of when I purchased my Paragon 1 back
in 1990. (The Paragon is a good radio, but not in the category of an OMNI
VI!)
With two filters and a DB25 cable for interconnection to the Herc II
amp the Paragon cost me $2650.
I did the "inflation calculator" and see that in 2002 dollars (the calc
would not
handle 2003 or 4) the amount would be $3692.46. So, what's new under the
sun? The Orion is really "moderately" priced.....
Thank you, TT! (this might convince me to order mine now rather than
later!) :-)
