I had reccommended to my boss to check out the SurroundBar. He is in NO way an audiophile and this would be perfect for him. He told be that CC had them for almost 850 bones... Is this right? Thats only about a 100 down from msrp which seems odd to me.

Is there an on line distribution center that I could point him to?

Thanks for the help.

    Henry,

    Crutchfield has them for $799.00 and you get $200.00 off if you buy a sub at the same time.

    If your boss is comfortable with Ebay, the bar can usually be had for about 600.00 + 50.00 shipping. They go pretty fast and all the ones I've seen have gone between 570-600.

    Thanks for the link Jesse and I sent it to him. I think its very improbable that he'll buy a sub. I think he is just looking for something a little better than tv speakers...

    Thanks

    I hear ya. I wonder how low TV speakers actually go. The Surroundbar is good to about 100Hz, I believe.
