I am sure many people will never bother to compare a Yamaha with other brands and models.

Super point...maybe add to this the kind of customers that Yamaha is targetting...makes simple logic for the prices..
same low volume factor also should be considered from the sales point of view also..more revenues from lesser volumes..adding volumes will take time..no one became a volume player over night...
