Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2244 Registered: Oct-04 | I thought it might be good to start an ongoing thread pointing members to noteworthy speaker bargains around the web. I'll get the ball rolling with this good deal on the Infinity Primus P362. http://www.frys.com/product/5223687 |

Gold Member Username: Stu_pittIrvington, New York USA Post Number: 3158 Registered: May-05 | Not sure where else to post this, but maybe here's a good place... According to a PMC guy on Audio Circle, MDF is now banned in England due to its toxicity. Not sure how long this has been in effect. Maybe the rest of Europe will follow suit? I'm assuming that UK made MDF speakers will all be upgraded, and the old models will probably be sold for dirt cheap. If the rest of Europe bans it, the same will probably happen with their speakers. |

Platinum Member Username: NuckPost Number: 11530 Registered: Dec-04 | If MDF is being banned, I am selling my Ikea stock right now LOL! |
|
Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2353 Registered: Oct-04 | I think Formaldehyde is being banned in the production of MDF. I'm going to assume there is a more environmentally friendly substitute in the works. |

Gold Member Username: Mike3Wylie, Tx USA Post Number: 1745 Registered: May-06 | MDF Being banned? Sh!t my wife just bought another IKEA Expedite, this time a 4X4 for my kit room. I have MDF under a lot of my gear. This is all making me very, very, nervous. Do you think this could be harmful to my kit? |
|
Platinum Member Username: NuckPost Number: 11551 Registered: Dec-04 | Dude, I sold the Ikea 2 weeks ago, it took a dive on this, sold for good $. Your kit is well preserved, Mike, hehe. |
|
Gold Member Username: Stu_pittIrvington, New York USA Post Number: 3164 Registered: May-05 | The PMC guy on Audio Circle said this - "Also improved is the cabinet material - MDF is banned in England becuase of its toxicity. We now use Medite, made in the same fashion as paper, it is much more dense. This combined with our new cabinet construction method our the MB2i's bass response is improved remarkably. This is a generational improvement over your MB1's..." They switched over to Medite. Not sure what everyone else is going to do/has done. |

Gold Member Username: T_bomb25Dayton, Ohio United States Post Number: 1935 Registered: Jun-05 | Arts new to the club but its better late than never,Im the original Wharfedale fan,Danman was to I've had my Diamond 8.1's since 2000.I have also owned the 8.3's,8.4's,Evo 20's,Evo 40's,9.4's,9.5's,now 9.1's Evo2 10's will be here next week also next month 2 pair of 9.0's 2 SW150's Diamond center.My Reference by July will be the Opus2-M2,yeah im a true Wharfie.lol |
|
Gold Member Username: T_bomb25Dayton, Ohio United States Post Number: 1936 Registered: Jun-05 | I would also add the Swan D2.1SE for $599 thats a lot of speaker with a beautiful finish with a sweet sound and stomping bass down to the upper 20's they have Mani-2 power in the bass for the low low,they are a very grown up sound factor in the looks,build and quality of drivers they are a supreme deal for the serious music lover. I would also include the Diamond 9.4 they are being discontinued in N.America most places are selling them for $350 which is a amazing deal,but they will drop even more and they will be a stupid deal,I love this speaker,I might get another set myself and finnaly the Evo2 20 they will also be discontinued in N.America,whats up with N.Americans the 2-way floorstander is the most versitale speaker in the world some of the great 1's include the Pro Ac Response 2.5,the Merlins,Kharma 3.2's just to name a few,but anyway when the Evo2 20's go down in price they will be the best speaker deal going I had the 2nd gen Evo 20's and could'nt beleive how low they went with real power,they will be a must buy. |

Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2495 Registered: Oct-04 | I haven't heard them, but considering how well received the Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 have been here & elsewhere, the 9.0 for $99/pair certainly looks to be a steal!

Gold Member Username: T_bomb25Dayton, Ohio United States Post Number: 1941 Registered: Jun-05 | Unfortunetly from what i read they wont be available until April 30th thats my problem with av123 they never have anything in stock everything over there is a big announcement fiasco instead of delivering like they should be doing,while i really love this little speaker,their not good enough to wait around on while the Wharfedale Diamond 9.1's are around or even the 9.0's or 8.1's which could sell out by then. |

Gold Member Username: T_bomb25Dayton, Ohio United States Post Number: 1951 Registered: Jun-05 | I have to agree with you Chris the Diamond 9.0's will be a great deal normally i never say that about a speaker I've never heard,but with all my years of listening and owning Wharfedales I would have to say they will be absolute killer at $99! |

Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2507 Registered: Oct-04 | This Boston Acoustic Horizon deal seems to come & go from time to time @ Amazon.com, I think it's the best "budget", small-medium room, 5.1 speaker deal going. This package sells for $600 at elsewhere, for $200 w/free shipping, it's a steal. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000W9DO7U |

Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2545 Registered: Oct-04 | I'm going to post new review of the Cerwin-Vega! CLS-215 here because I'm fairly certain it is both a speaker & a bargain.

Platinum Member Username: NuckPost Number: 12279 Registered: Dec-04 | Never looked to see who carries them up North here. The 300wpc Classe should keep them awake. I have always trhought that the whole cls series is made for movies, CM. Smaller amp, lots of response from the speakers. |
|
Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2578 Registered: Oct-04 | I agree on the CLS & movies, but these reviews are convincing me they are more than that. As for power, they are rather efficient, but I might fly up to The Fortress of Solitude to listen to them with the Classe gear. |

Gold Member Username: Stu_pittIrvington, New York USA Post Number: 3311 Registered: May-05 | Vandies are a speaker I'd be very interested in hear, but haven't had the opportunity. Ariel and DeVore are on that list too. |

|
Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2704 Registered: Oct-04 | Although you may be able to win an auction for these for less on Harman's eBay site, $129 for a pair of Infinity Beta 20 from THE NEW circuitcity.com is steal in my book! http://www.circuitcity.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=41700 69&CatId=3583 |
|
Platinum Member Username: NuckPost Number: 12710 Registered: Dec-04 | It had been a while since a Beta link, CM, I was afraid you were in denial/remission/etc. |
|
Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2710 Registered: Oct-04 | They're still a steal IMHO, only bested by speakers costing 2,3,4X as much, if low-end thump is your thing, perhaps more than that. Have you ever heard them Nuck? |
|
Platinum Member Username: NuckPost Number: 12713 Registered: Dec-04 | No, Chris, I have not. |
|
Platinum Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 10044 Registered: Feb-05 | For a person shopping for them that is quite a nice link, lots of great pics. Those are new and not refurbs as well I believe. |
|
Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2711 Registered: Oct-04 | I'm of the position that Harman's eBay store is primarily selling NOS. They never sell blems or B-Stock items, and I can't imagine repairing a speaker or receiver to NEW condition, both functionally & cosmetically, repacking it, and then selling that item for a fraction of the MSRP is good business; we've all seen Beta 20s sell for less then $25, less than $20, the same can be said for just about everything they auction on eBay. I just can't figure it out? |
|
Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2712 Registered: Oct-04 | You ever hear any of the Primus Series Nuck? To tell you the truth, there are dozens of places to listen to Infinity car speakers, but I don't know of a single showroom in the NYC/Tri-State Area that carries their home speakers. |

Gold Member Username: T_bomb25Dayton, Ohio United States Post Number: 2200 Registered: Jun-05 | Those are really good prices,the Beta's are still a really good deal,so are the Primus. |

Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2794 Registered: Oct-04 | All the MS speakers I've heard were very, very good to excellent; their Avant 902i are very well reviewed. http://www.smarthouse.com.au/Reviews/Home_Cinema/W4H9N8H4 I've never owned a pair, but for about $40 a speaker, it a hard deal to beat. |
|
Platinum Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 10437 Registered: Feb-05 | Looks like a great deal. That'll beat the pants off of the standard HTIB and for less money! |

Gold Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY United States Post Number: 2795 Registered: Oct-04 | The SMARTHOUSE review of the Mission M32i was dead-on, so I suspect the others to be fairly accurate. |
