    good deal, especially for PC. too small and low power for living room or HT setup.

    shipping cost alone is almost 1/4 or more the price.

    This is tempting, but I don't see that model # number listed on this site

    I did do that and the info is still sketchy. I'm sure this would do for a small office rig with RT25i's as the satellites. I don't really need it, but I'm a sucker for a deal. :smile:

    H9 - Do it. You may enjoy the small blending.

    LOL... anyone read the ad closely? Whoever wrote it up is a riot.
