There is no fixed public retail price for Oberon-style biofeedback systems in the U.S.; pricing is provided by tailored quote only. The final number depends primarily on three controllable elements—device model, software package, and service/support—plus configuration options, training, warranty, shipping and local import costs. To get comparable, actionable quotes you must specify the exact model, required software modules and language, desired warranty/training levels, shipping terms, and your intended clinical use. We provide a copyable one-page checklist and a step-by-step submission workflow below so you can request apples-to-apples proposals from suppliers.

Direct answer: Is there a published price for Oberon biofeedback devices in the U.S.?
No. Oberon-style or Metatron/Metatron Hunter devices are typically quoted on request rather than listed with a fixed retail price in the U.S. market. Suppliers, including factory representatives and authorised distributors, issue a formal written quote after a buyer confirms model selection, required software modules, service terms and logistics. For our products (for example the Metatron Hunter family and Metatron Hunter 4025 variants) pricing is provided by inquiry; please contact us with a configuration checklist for a written quote.
What “price on request” means for buyers and why it’s common in this category
“Price on request” signals that the seller will provide a price after clarifying a set of buyer choices and constraints. For non-standard medical and diagnostic equipment like Oberon-style biofeedback devices, the same base hardware can be sold with widely different software bundles, service commitments and regional adjustments. That variability makes a single public list price misleading: two buyers ordering the same chassis can end up with different total costs because of software licensing, language packs, warranty terms or customs and shipping options.
As a wellness center owner, treat “price on request” not as opacity but as an invitation to control the variables that matter. A well-constructed quote request reduces back-and-forth and delivers numbers you can compare across vendors.
Three primary price bases buyers must expect to control
When we quote an Oberon-style system, three line items explain most of the variance:
Device model (hardware platform) — Different model names in the Metatron/Metatron Hunter family identify the physical unit and the supported peripheral set. Choose the model that suits clinic workflow and throughput.
Software package and licensing — Core diagnostic software plus optional modules (databases, reporting, advanced analysis and language packs) are usually licensed separately. Determine whether you need single-seat or multi-seat licenses, and whether you require ongoing updates or only a perpetual license.
Service and support — Basic technical support, extended warranty, on-site installation, remote troubleshooting and training are priced differently. Extended response commitments or dedicated local support increase the quote materially.
Controlling these three elements gives you the most leverage in managing total cost of ownership.
Configuration factors that materially change an Oberon-style quote
Several configuration choices beyond the three primary bases will change the quoted price in meaningful ways:
Software modules — Analytical databases, pathology libraries, patient-management modules and reporting templates are often optional. If you intend to use the device for a wider range of protocols, include all modules up front so you receive an all-in price.
Language and localization — English is typical, but if you need a specific U.S. English variant, Spanish interface, or customised text, that may be an extra-cost item. Confirm whether user manuals and software help files are included.
Connectivity and compatibility — Will the device integrate with your clinic’s practice management software or electronic records? Custom integration or additional interface modules add to the quote.
Peripheral kit and accessories — Electrodes, cables, spare sensors and carrying cases can be packaged or sold separately. Make clear whether consumables are included.
OEM labeling or private-branding — Some buyers request co-branding or OEM packaging; that is a production-level change and is typically quoted as a custom order.
These choices are the reason an upfront checklist produces faster, more comparable quotes.
Optional modules and services that affect price (training, warranty extension, spare parts, OEM/labeling)
Optional items frequently included in a formal quote:
On-site installation and setup — Delivered and installed systems require a technician or trainer visit; remote setup is cheaper.
Training packages — Basic user training vs. advanced operator certification; choose per staff skill and turnover assumptions.
Extended warranty / service contract — One-year warranties are common; multi-year coverage, faster SLAs and loaner units raise cost.
Spare parts and consumables kits — Stocking spare sensors or cable assemblies avoids downtime but increases initial outlay.
Software updates and annual licenses — Some vendors charge an annual support & update fee rather than including lifetime updates.
OEM or private-label options — Custom branding or special packaging is a production order with minimum quantities and extra lead time.
Decide which of these are essential for your clinic before you request a quote. If in doubt, ask vendors to price both a “clinic-ready” baseline and a “turnkey” configuration so you can see incremental costs.
Logistics and transactional price drivers: shipping, import duties, taxes, and payment terms
Even when hardware and software costs are agreed, logistics and transactional choices alter the final landed cost:
Shipping method and insurance — Air freight is faster but more expensive than ocean shipment. Insurance for high-value diagnostic equipment should be included or quoted separately.
Customs duties and import VAT — Equipment shipped from abroad may incur customs duties and taxes. Quotes can be offered EXW, FOB, CIF or DDP; ask suppliers to state the incoterm so you know who is responsible for import clearance and payment of duties.
Local taxes and registration — U.S. state sales tax, use tax or other filing requirements depend on the delivery state and your business registration.
Payment terms — Net 30, deposit plus balance, or letter-of-credit options affect cash flow and sometimes impact total price (suppliers may offer better pricing for larger or guaranteed payments).
A complete quote should show the base price, shipping option, incoterm, estimated duties and any other taxes. If the supplier cannot estimate duties, they should at least specify the incoterm so you can obtain an import estimate.
How certification, software language and system compatibility affect your total cost
Certification, localization and compatibility are practical cost drivers:
Declared certifications — We list ISO 9001 and CE as part of our company declarations. Certifications may influence acceptance in your jurisdiction or with institutional buyers, but they don’t eliminate the need to check local regulatory or facility requirements. If you need third-party conformity documentation or additional certificates, those may be extra.
Software language and help files — Translated user interfaces, manuals and training materials typically increase cost. Ask whether the supplied software includes U.S. English and whether translations are vendor-supplied or third-party.
System compatibility — Confirm supported Windows versions and whether the supplier verifies compatibility with clinic systems. If you require custom integration with practice-management software, specify it up front.
Inquire about the exact language packs, supported OS versions and delivered documentation so your IT and compliance staff can verify acceptability before purchase.
What evidence to include or request from a supplier when confirming price and configuration
When you receive a quote, ask the supplier to attach or confirm the following items so the price is verifiable:
Model name and serial-range or SKU for each quoted item (so hardware is unambiguous).
Written description of warranty scope, duration and exclusions.
List of included accessories and spares, and part numbers for optional items.
Incoterm, shipping method, and an estimate for duties/taxes (or DDP pricing if preferred).
Payment terms and any required deposits.
Estimated lead time and delivery milestone dates.
Support contact and escalation path for U.S.-based issues, if available.
A quote that lacks these attachments is incomplete. Make “itemized quote with attachments” a requirement in your inquiry to speed comparison.
Step-by-step: how to prepare and submit a clear U.S. quote request for an Oberon-style biofeedback device
Follow this workflow to obtain comparable quotes:
Decide the primary use case — clinical screening, full diagnostic service, therapy adjunct or resale. State expected patient throughput and main use protocols.
Choose the hardware family — pick a model family name (for example the Metatron Hunter series). If undecided, ask the vendor to propose two models with pros/cons for clinic use.
List software modules required — name the core package and any add-ons (databases, reporting, multi-user license). Specify single- or multi-seat licensing.
Specify language and documentation needs — user interface language, manuals, training language and any requirements for Spanish or other languages.
Decide on service level — include desired warranty length, on-site installation, remote training, spare parts and SLA expectations.
Provide shipping and billing details — delivery address (state), whether you prefer DDP or supplier-arranged shipping, and billing entity for tax reasons.
Request an itemized quote — ask for base price, software, options, shipping, duties estimate and total landed cost. Require lead time and payment terms.
Ask for attachments — model datasheets, software feature list, warranty text and a software license agreement draft.
Send this in a single email or document to suppliers to reduce ambiguity. We accept structured requests and will return an itemized written quote.

Comparison guidance: choosing configurations for clinic use, resale/wholesale, or distribution
Your purchasing priorities differ by role. Here’s how to think about configurations:
Clinic use — Prioritize ease of use, training and local support. Choose a model with user-friendly workflow and include training and spares. Budget for annual support and updates.
Resale or wholesale — Focus on margin and regional compliance. Request standardised bundles for resale (fixed software package, accessories and warranty) so you can present a consistent SKU to your customers.
Distribution — You will need OEM or co-branding options, minimum order quantities, documented support commitments and possibly localized software. Negotiate distributor pricing and marketing support early.
For each path, insist on written terms for who handles returns, repairs and software updates.
Typical seller questions you should be ready to answer and why they matter to price
Sellers commonly ask the following because each affects cost and lead time:
What is the delivery address and U.S. state? — Affects tax, duties and shipping routing.
Which model and specific software modules do you require? — Determines license fees and compatibility.
Do you need on-site installation or remote setup? — Technician travel or shipping of training materials adds cost.
Is there a local support requirement or reseller arrangement? — If you require local representation, we must factor in partner margins or staffing.
Payment method and corporate purchasing rules? — Letter of credit, bank transfer or purchase order can alter the payment schedule and sometimes price.
Do you need documentation for accreditation or procurement? — Suppliers supply technical files or declarations for an extra fee in some cases.
Being prepared with answers avoids delays and back-and-forth pricing changes.
