Yeah, that is alot, especially when converted to Canadian dollars, but I'm sure they're worth it.:D
Keep going up, Canadian dollar.;)
lol. yea canadian dollars!
Are they gonna offer the Klipsch warranty though? It's worthless to buy them from newegg if you only have the 90 day or so coverage:o
From what I heard last, Amy at klipsch said they were authorized dealers.
Well that's good to hear!Quote:

I'd almost rather get mine from Best Buy though,since I won't have to worry about the speakers getting damaged from shipping, as well as if anything goes wrong, I won't have to ship them back.
i assume at the price they're selling it for now, it's authorized too. i'm referring to newegg.
Call me a penny pincher, but if I buy them from newegg I save myself on tax ;) Although bestbuy does also offer them online with free shipping (which makes them only $10 more). Now if you can also (for any reason) decide to exchange them at the store (whether deffective, r refund) Then that would make purchasing them at bestbuy somewhat golden.Quote:

Just to comment on the price, I went to best buy here in ottawa canada and they have the original pm5.1s no ultras yet. With a pricetag of $699. They also have them hooked up wrong and they sound terrible even compared to the promedia 2.1s.. Which I find rather funny. I had to put the sub volume to +15 to get MINIMAL bass. they also had the sats hooked up out of phase. Brilliant minds at work there..
Anyway for $699 canadian I must say thats too much.
I payed $630 for mine almost 2 years ago, and now they went up in price? that makes no sense :) Sure its great for resale value, but not for attracting customers when the Z560s although they sound much worse in comparison can be had for $250 if you shop around, that puts them at less than half the price of the klipsch 5.1s. I did a conversino from us currency and it didnt even come to $600 canadian dollars from the $399 USD.
While IMO for the quality you get $699 is still worth it, but it should be a little less expensive... they are makeing a mint on these or they are charging a shitload of taxes to bring them in..
someone remind me...what was the ungodly cheap price that they were at??
Yeah, over here in Vancouver the regular 5.1's have ALWAYS been $699 Canadian. That's why it's better to buy them across the border and "sneak" them in.;)
If you are referring to the Ultra's, newegg had them for $365 shipped.Quote:
