Question though... Just looked at the prices and they're not actually cheaper than a low of new windows which you can find some pretty decent quality ones for and just seal them well. For such a hefty price, what exactly is the point of this? I can only imagine any value in it (if actually effective) at maybe $100 per panel per set of windows, but otherwise, who is this intended for? These are literally professional studio prices.
Thanks for your comment! There are three points here: first, the replacement windows that cost less than our AcrylAcoustic Clear Window Covers are - in our experience - always vinyl sash or very inexpensive-wood windows that are difficult to install and are of low quality; second, with replacement windows, you must always factor in the cost of installation labor, which can double or triple the actual cost of the window (not to mention the serious hassle and mess); third, research has shown that nearly any window, old or new, will perform better with our window covers than even new windows alone, and this certainly includes replacement versions. When you include the very high level of product quality, as well as the ease of installation, the cost of AcrylAcoustic Clear Window Covers is therefore not as high overall for the value returned. I hope that answers your questions, and thanks again for your post. Best, John Calder Acoustic Geometry
Acoustic Geometry Hey John, Thank you for your response. Very reasonable and seemingly founded. All I would therefore just say then is that in the current economy, the target market you'd possibly be having in mind with this product wouldn't inherently see the value in it with the current pricing. Imagine the purpose and intent of your product clearly stated and laid out and placed as an Amazon listing. Whether it's right or wrong, people would see that and just immediately click away, can unless it's professionals who do business and deal with these things. I can't imagine direct consumer appeal, like your average apartment renter or house owner (even by city standards). In other words, this isn't the Tesla Model 3, and I like you guys, and I guess that's what I like to see a company accomplish. Does it really cost that much in terms of manufacturing and material in order to produce? Thanks! Best, David
..so its a 1/4" plexiglass sheet with storm window tabs basically?
