They are distributors remember which their cost prices are cheaper than the retailers cost price. They are either selling them at a financial loss or break even. As I have been involved with distribution / trade sales in the past most retailers etc when selling stock to get rid of it sell at cost price initally then drop the price at a loss to make way for new stock.
We can only wait until Panasonic possibly tell us about future plans if any. 
I assume nothing.
The unit cost for the KN2600 wholesale is �595.
A little time ago dealers were made an offer by Technics that if they ordered �20,000 worth of KN2600 they would receive a discount of �150 per unit
Turnkey are a large hardware retailer of long standing and are not distributors to the retail trade Technics UK are the only and exclusive distributors in the UK
What new stock do you assume they are making way for
the KN2600 is a fairly new and latest product from Panasonic/Technics
