Hello everyone. We’re seeing a lot of questions regarding the move of Prodigy to distribution. As part of this decision, we're providing Crestron versions for each of the Prodigy products at competitive pricing. For example, the Crestron MLX-3 to be comparable to the Prodigy PLX-3; the MC3 comparable to the PMC3,
ON this, I haven't heard for sure on the pricing other than they pricing will be simliar. I know the MLX3 and MTX3 are comparable. The new full line PAMP version is still TBA.
The ONE thing that I'm concerned about is the lack of an entry level processor. From what I understand the MC3 is more powerful than the Prodigy's PMC3. I also know that the current MC3 retails for twice that of the PMC3.
PRodigy has been successful in my opinion because of its well featured, but limited, entry level processor. Is there any word if there will be a price change on the MC3 or if there will be a lower end version that is simliar to the PMC3 to keep the pricing competive.
The fact is that the current MC3 pricing paired with any of the Crestron remotes is just too high to keep Crestron in every project (which is what we want).
Thanks again for participating.
