    they are discontinued, therefore not on site, not on racks in store. You have to ask are any left. There was only 2 left in the store near me.

    Not yet. I probably will in a few. Looking for the amps I want. I currently own 2 Adcom GFA-555II and a sherwood newcastle A965 7 channel amp. But I am wanting to switch to B&k reference. I want the 200.2 and the 200.5 amps. They have some nice prices on the used market so I am just trying to find the best deal possible as well as the one in the best shape. I will say I heard the ML Purity's running on a denon receiver yesterday playing the Live music Bluray of The eagles and was blown away. I hope I am happy with the sound as I really enjoy the KEF's I own now.

    Thanks, I will run a blue in a few. I have owned sony players in the past and absolutely love them. This player saved me a couple of hundred because I was going to shoot for an oppo but saw this deal and snagged it. I will eventually get the new oppo 93 whenever 3D projectors become mainstream because that will be the next time I update video.

    How would this player compare with the Pioneer BDP-51FD in terms of DVD upconversion picture quality and multichannel analog audio?

    give them the sku#9500453 not the model number. Called earlier and they had no idea what i was talking about, then got the sku from AVSforum member and they said they had 2 in stock.

    There are a couple of Magnolias on the way to Pa. and on to P-fest. I'll have to stop in and take a look. May pick one of these up...and if they have extra stock I may pick up one for the raffle at Polkfest. What do you guys think? Chances are though; I might not find 'any'?

    Definitely go to the store. When I called the first time they couldn't find it. Second time I called with the sku and it came up as 2 available but they sent someone to double check but they couldn't find them. After that I went in and they had 2 sitting right by the counter.

    So go check for yourself.

    They also have a Pioneer Elite 141 60" plasma, regularly $6000 on sale for $2500. I almost bought it as it's a steal at that price.

    If I didn't already have two of them it would've been a no brainer, but my next big purchase will be a 3d jvc projector.
