Teenage Engineering has drawn its fair share of criticism over the years for the price of its products – many fans of the brand have felt priced out of purchasing desirable instruments like the OP-1 Field and OP-XY, and releasing a $1,599 flat-packed desk didn't exactly do the company any favours.
In it defence, though, it should be noted that the Swedish design wizards have released some affordable products. Teenage Engineering's Pocket Operator is surely one of the best-selling pieces of budget music gear in history: the PO-10 launched at $59 a decade ago and the price of all Pocket Operators has remained well under three figures since.
