Re: Wenger practice room price
I just priced these for my music store. They're $300 per square foot (delivered and installed) for the version with no electronics, and $350 per square foot for the V-tech electronic version.
So, if you wanted an 8 foot x 5 foot space, you'd be starting at $12,000. There are much better ways to spend $12k, which is why I didn't end up getting the fancy rooms for the store.
Keep in mind that price includes all of the lighting, air conditioning, etc. -- there is a lot of technology in them, so I guess they cost what they cost. My thoughts on the subject is that most people buying them are government (read: schools and military) contracts, and money is generally appropriated based on a bid for whatever is needed.
Hope this helps.
