What is the difference? Is the cheaper one NOT Dipole/Bipole?

[BeRad]

No the cheaper one is exact same. I know cause I have four of them mounted on the walls around me right now. They were out of stock when I placed my order, but they arrived in 3 weeks after ordering.

Even though your links don't seem to work, i know what you are talking about ;)

[ryanjoachim]

yeah, weird how the links aren't working. I was just curious cause the cheaper one says nothing about dipole or bipole...and I don't wanna spend money without getting that.

Here's the $399 ones

I've seen this before with other products; same item, one sold and shipped by Amazon, the other by one of Amazon's partners (Crutchfield in this case)

[ryanjoachim]

thanks for the answers!

[ryanjoachim]

Are there different model numbers for the A4's?

Polk Audio FXI A4 AM4425-A - that's the one from the $250 one
The $399 one doesn't list a model number

[ryanjoachim]

Also, and sorry for seeming like an idiot...

But the $399 version states that they are sold as a pair. The $250 version doesn't say that, and when I go to the "More Technical info" link at the bottom it says:
Technical Details

* Item Package Quantity: 1

i ordered two pairs of the $249 ones like BeRad, and they are the regular fxi a4's. they came in pairs, just like the $399 one. i think amazon misquoted the price (the orig price should be $399, not $299 like they have up there). i would jump on this deal before they figure it out. if you order two pairs, you can get a $200 credit toward a polk subwoofer. i was able to snatch the psw125 for only $23.

[BeRad]

I don't think amazon is still offering the subwoofer deal anymore.

[uvaskeme]

I don't think amazon is still offering the subwoofer deal anymore.

i just checked, and it looks like they are still doing it. once i got to the payment screen, it showed the $200 off. i think the sub deal ends on 2/19, but i'm not sure.

[ryanjoachim]

Yeah, I got $200 off of my DSW Pro 600 at Frys when I bought my 4 RTi10's

Then I sold 2 of the RTi10's for 400.

And now I'm buying the FXi A4's for $250.

That's $150 profit!
