Mark, Wow! Thanks a lot for the response! I'm leaving for New Orleans tomorrow morning, but plan on going to my local dealer on Monday when I get back. I'll see about them giving me some sort of deal. I talked to a few friends in Canada, and had them call some local dealers, but after...
Andrew, No kidding? That's quite a discount. Was that their asking price, or did you talk them down to that? I should go in there today and tell them I've heard of people getting them for that cheap, and see what they tell me. Unless you want to go buy me some sets from your dealer &...
Mark: Really? I couldn't find a single thing! I'm looking at the C-1 & CC-1 for the front, and the XL-150 for the rear. Possibly even the C-5's for the front if they're a good enough price. My local dealer pricing is: C-1 $249/pr (front) C-C1 $299 (center) XL-150 $185/pr (rear)...
Great price, Jeremy! On a side note, when buying something from a dealer, will they usually haggle with the price, or are they pretty much set in stone?
Thanks, guys. I wasn't aware that dealers weren't allowed to ship out of state. So, I guess i'll buy locally. :) Phil: I believe a dealer here sells JBL as well, so I'll have to look into those. Thanks!!
price is a big deal to me, so I would like to get the best "bang for my buck" that I can. I heard that Energy stopped most of their Canadian online stores from selling speakers to the USA. I was just curious if anyone knows of any other avenues to look down to get cheaper-priced speakers...
Bill: I'm assuming you purchased the 600 yourself? Can I ask how you like it? I've been looking at the same one myself, and seeing the refurb price on Onkyo's site ($320, i believe), it's almost too good to pass up. I've been looking at others (Denon 1803, 2803), but can't warrant...
I thought the C3's sounded rather nice myself, but the budget is already getting quite stretched as it stands right now. Plus, I still need to get furniture. :frowning: I'll definitely let everyone know. Thanks for the opinions!
Thanks, Junie! It was originally between that Denon & the Onkyo 600. After reading around here for a while, I came to the conclusion that while Onkyo definitely isn't bad at all, Denon might be the better brand. That was the only real reason to go with it. I'll definitely be posting some...
I can't count how many things I've learned on this site so far. Just wanted to send out thanks to everyone for having such great conversation on here. I'm putting together a HT in my basement over the next few weeks, and wanted to get some opinons on it. Audio budget is around $2000 , but I...
