    Pardigm Speaker Prices, Canadian Dollars

    Definitely worth it to buy in Canada. I recently scored a set of Studio 40s in Rosenut Veneer and the Studio CC for $1425 CA, or about $930 US. Those numbers are after taxes! My local B&M dealer quoted me at $1500 for the same set-up(before taxes). I did need to shop around though as I found...

    FS: Infinity Reference Six & RS Video Center Channel

    Studio 40 stands - Saw them once here, can't find them now!

    Garry, If it those Osiris stands in the picture above, check on AudioAsylum.com and search for them in the classifieds. Osiris went out of business, and this guy bought up most of their excess. Here is the link: Link Removed Unfortunately I wanted the 19"(I was told 24.5"Stands were too...

    Paradigm vs internet companies

    Sorry. Double-post.

    Paradigm vs internet companies

    Doug -Fair enough, it sounds like a level comparison with that disclosure. I auditioned the 4.1s, 2.1s. and CC in a someone's home. IMO, the 2.1s are definitely the best of what I heard(and they were surrounds in that application). Overall the Divas were nice, but not for me. Audio is all...

    Paradigm vs internet companies

    I think Doung hit it on the nose. However, I don't think the comparison is too fair with the exception of the Axioms. Both the Rocket 750s and Diva 6.1s cost well more than the $660(US dollars, and after tax, and $20 in Gas) I paid for Studio 40s in Rosenut Veneer a week ago, not too mention you...

    Paradigm vs internet companies

    I guess everything is relative, and much is based on location. At US prices, I would definitely look at options other than Paradigm, but at Canadian Prices they go toe to toe with any direct company. In Canada, I'm sure they see Rockets, Hsu, etc in a different light because they pay more for them.

    Paradigm vs internet companies

    I have to disagree with your logic Randy concerning Paradigm having a higher overhead than internet companies. This is the way I see it from an economic standpoint. Based on economic theory, Price = Marginal Costs, and does not rely on Fixed Costs(R&D, rents, equipment). So basically, the price...

    Disappointing trip to Montreal

    Being I have a short drive up there, I'm thinking I might give it another shot. There were 3 other Dime Dealers including Codell Audio listed on their website in the Montreal which I could try. Now that I have that quote from Stereo Plus, maybe I could use that as leverage to get the other...

    Disappointing trip to Montreal

    Well, after perusing many threads about buying Paradigm and PSB in Canada I made the 2 hour trip up to Montreal to investigate. Here is what I learned quickly upon arrival. First, most of the shops are too small to carry any decent inventory, so don't expect ANY shops to have the Studio Wood...

    Last chance on this before they go to Ebay. $500 plus S&H

    FS: Infinity Reference Six & RS Video Center Channel

    Price reduction - $550 This is quite a bargian for Reference Sixes and Center Channel. I do have some pics, but they are taken with my webcam so they do not do these classics justice. If you want to see them though, I can email them.

    FS: Infinity Reference Six & RS Video Center Channel

    I am pretty flexible on the $650, but if someone were to offer the full price I will throw in a pair of 2000.1s for surround(also in black).

    Studio 60s vs. Stratus Silver vs. Rocket 550s(or 750s)

    I actually had the Studio 60s in my living for a weekend, and overall I was pleased. The highs were detailed w/o being harsh, but what I was not 100% happy with was the bass. Granted, for (2) 6 1/2" drivers the low end was great. However, I found it a tad on the boomy side and in instances...

    Studio 60s vs. Stratus Silver vs. Rocket 550s(or 750s)

    Thanks for the reply John. When, and if, I have room for something like that I would jump on that in a heartbeat. However, one of the main purposes of revamping my fronts and center are to go to a smaller floorstander. The VMPS look great and have some incredibly impressive specs, but are almost...

    Studio 60s vs. Stratus Silver vs. Rocket 550s(or 750s)

    I think I have my choices narrowed down to the above, but any helpful insight would be appreciated. Prices for the Silvers and Studio 60s are comparable, but the Rockets 550s are a bit cheaper. My listening preferences are 80/20 stereo/HT, and I mainly listen to classic rock and jamband...

    Newcastle R-956 Question

    Did you try using the OSD? If it is like the 863, you can change the video input selector without changing the audio source. Just a possibility.

    Sherwood Newcastle 863 or Yamaha V2200

    I have been elated with my 863 from day one. Lots of clean power, plenty of inputs(for me), and the remote is great. Sonically it surpasses what I heard from the Denon 3802 and a comparable Yammie. Although I listen to mainly 2 channel stereo, the HT sound on the DVDs I have watched blew away my...

    Sherwood R963 problem

    I would contact [email protected] he is the man when it comes to the Newcastle Line. He has responded rather quickly to any questions I have had on my 863. In my opinion, I think there is either a wiring issue or you got a faulty unit. The reason I say this is b/c I have had my 863...

    Phono Pre-amps: Talk to me....

    "Little Rat" is Cat.#: 970-1018. Available at 1-800-THE-SHACK, but be quick. They do not stay in stock long b/c of it's high demand. I received mine the other day, and have no complaints whatsoever.

    Paradigm dealers in New England?

    Andy, are you refering to the guy at Audio Lab(I think that is the name)? I was in Beantown last weekend to audition some PSBs, and the guy at the mentioned store was a complete prick. He seemed annoyed we were there, and tried to push some Monitor Audios on us. Not only did he only have the...

    Considering Denon 3803, Newcastle R863, Outlaw 1050

    I guess I will chime as one the few r-863 owners. I have only had this unit for about 2 weeks, but I could not be happier. Without a demo, I took a chance and picked this up because I was offered a deal that made me forget about the Denon. How does $685 delivered sound?! The risk is well...

    Sherwood-Newcastle R-963's come in black?!

    I have the R-863, but I know the R-963 has the same manual tuning buttons on the front of the unit. There is also a button to switch between manual and preset tuning. FYI, these receivers are incredible. I was planning to hold off on the receiver before buying new speakers, but I ran across...

    Scam? Denon 4802 on Ubid for $1000 New

    This seems a little shady to me. The 'ship from location' says Europe while the 'ship from postal code' says 12435 which is a New York State zip code. There is an Onkyo 989 going for $1000 as well from the same seller. Anyone else find this fishy?
