Elektron Musical Instruments

Yo that's not cool.  

The situation with Radikal is quite similar to Elektron's.  Both are small boutique companies making unique hand built synthesizers whose product(s) have very similar characteristics.  The price bit rears it head (and rightfully so) in almost every conversation I've had with un-Elektron initiated musicians ($1200 bux for a drum machine!!??).  

The views expressed in his write up are totally legitimate to the small groups of people who appreciate quality/inspired hardware - Elektron users obviously included (I'd bet Daniel at Elektron would say something very similar if a price point were brought up about his elektron instruments).

Personally, I'm glad I got to read it.  I'll be one of those few scratching to get the dough to put a Spectralis beside my aluminum Swedish beauties.
