    When they finally run through the inventory, watch them start to creep up in price. Maybe a year from now.

    Hey this is getting to be better than KLH pricing :D

    Mike, I'd offer to buy you a pair, but shipping would kill the deal.

    Ron, thanks a ton for the offer. :D

    You are right though, shipping would kill it.

    Thanks again

    Interesting, my ad is from San Jose Mercury, it says 49.99 each*, 99.98 pair, sold in pair and in-store only.

    Nope. I'm too cheap (and skeptical buying from private parties on ebay) to stay in when I see too much interest.

    Did buy a Cadence XSub 12 BIN for $250 shipped. Craigsub over at AVS reviewed it, stellar in it's class. Couldn't pass. Took my Velo DPS10 back and now I'm waiting.

    Probably should wait a couple of weeks before I bring another receiver home :D

    Ron, once you test out the Cadence, please post your impression.

    $200 and I would have kept it. It's a nice sub, though I didn't like the volume control. Hell $400 is a fair deal. I'm going to try the Cadence. I'm expecting to like it from what I've read for my application.

    Well, so far I've managed to stay clear of Fry's. I left work, yesterday, with the intention of heading straight to Fry's, but when the exit came up, I fought the urge. That's a big step for me. I just have to make it through Tuesday without entering the store, which will be hard for me, because they have several other things I need on sale, right now. The real test will be, if I go to get the other stuff and not walk out with the speakers, though. Kinda like an alcoholic going to his favorite Bistro to eat and not have a beer.
