Demo Psw505 @ Cc , Do I Buy $209
Hi guys , semms CC has started reductions on the current RTi line and others (with CC not carrying the RTi line in the future) .
I talked to my local CC manager and they have a demo PSW505 there that he will sell me for $209 . There is cosmetic damage on the top back corner (veneer is missing by about 3/4 -1 " square) . The rest seems fine .....
Should I pick this up ? Need replies ASAP
*note*
(I already do have a unopened PSW303 from Cruthfield , that has past the 30 day return period)
What ya think ?
TIA

I would get it. If its junk, you've got 30 days to return to CC. No way a 505 can be beat for $209.

I'd go for it as well...

OK , I just grabed the 505 for $209+tax ( TOTAL =$227.29)
I checked the sub over again and the veneer that is missing (TOP/LEFT/REAR CORNER) measures only 1/2" square . The driver and grill look fine , and there are also about 5 very minor "dings" on the rest of the cabinet ; but they are not deep at all and are quite hard to see unless you are really upclose and in very brite direct light starring at the cabinet. ( I'll try and post a pic later on and see what ya think )
I too will test it out tonight or by tomorrow with the new released dvd Lord of Rings- ROTK to make sure the driver is good .
Boy this is going to be overkill for my little HT/bedroom setup , but it seemed to hard of a deal to pass on .
Anyway , thanks gents for QUICK responses to my post ; much appreciated

If you're worried about money after buying the PSW303 I'd say buy the PSW505 and then put the 303 up on eBay. If it's sealed you should be able to get around $200 - $220 for it.Home:
