Sound United buys Onkyo/Pioneer - Dean Roddey - 05-15-2019

Assuming this is fact and not just the internet, Sound United, which already owns Denon and Marantz, has purchased Onkyo and Pioneer. That would seem somewhat anti-competitive, given that they now sort of own most of the mainstream slash volume AVR models, right?

Still plenty of players in the market - Yamaha, Rotel, Sony...

If they acquire a few more it may get to that point. They are probably one of the biggest now.

I think Yamaha and Sony are the only ones left doing real volume, right? I'm not sure how big Rotel, NAD, etc... actually are.
