Welcome to our forum.
Major components and construction are the same between A and R series. Only differences as already pointed out are the extra packs, fancier (not necessarily better) controller with remote functionality and slightly different waterfalls. I opted for the R series as price was more important to me than extra packs (4 was plenty for me) and I actually prefer the simplicity of the R series controller. $2100 seems a bit excessive of a jump between the two. My dealer was only about $1,200 different between R and A models.

My dealer was only about $1,200 different between R and A models.He just bought one. I know you BF dealers don't like the deal he got but he did. Good for him but why knock him for it. You know why you can't sell a tub that cheap and I do too but more power too him for being able to hose the dealer and get a great dealbased on your years of knowledge with the Hot Tub Industry/Margins/and the Bullfrog product line? or are you just making up stuff as you go along? I assume its the later...As someone who actually knows what they are talking about and for those who are interested in the Bullfrog product line $1,200+ is NOT out of line between the A & R...most dealers are in the $1,200-$1,800 range ON AVERAGE between collections across the entire United States
