Joining Club LSi

[fireshoes]

I'm extremely happy to say that today I placed an order for a pair of Polk Audio LSi15 tower speakers. I am getting them with the cherry finish, which my store doesn't stock so it will probably be a few weeks before I actually receive them. You can be sure I will be in agony waiting for them to arrive. In the meantime, I guess I will have to start saving for the next upgrade - an amp.

[scottvamp]

Congrats man, where did ya purchase them from?

[fireshoes]

It's a 10-store chain in the upper midwest called American TV. That's where I work.

And the workers discount was................

[fireshoes]

I don't think I'm allowed to say. :)

fireshoes, good going , that the way a working man can get the good stuff a little at a time, and you are going to injoy your system better than a rich man that can go out and buy anything that he desires at one time. a rich man will pay for someone to, order, buy, handle, set the system up for him, he will not have hands on injoyment or appreciation of it. so we are better off in some ways that rich man will never know. remeber that.
i know i had to do that to. a little at a time.

Fireshoes most likely got the pair for roughly 500-600 bucks.

Got to love that "below cost" deals you can get. ;)

[Zen Dragon]

Fireshoes would be a good man to make friends with. Dealer employee discounts can be in the 50% area with a good employer.

Often times in the 70 percentile range.... ;) ;)

I think I'd rather be rich. :p

[begbie]

I'm just surprised he never bought them sooner!

[fireshoes]

I've only had the RTi70's for 6 months! ;)

Plus I just bought that Hitachi 51", so that took up a lot of the budget.

I can see it now kberg.... you dictating your posts to your personal secretary...

That is, assuming you bothered to hire one that could type...


Congrats Fireshoes... what amp lines does your employer handle?

Edit: - nevermind, saw your weblink as I was leaving... HK, Onkyo, Yamaha, and Denon receivers.... some nice choices there. Site lists amp/ pre-amp search option, but no hits???

[fireshoes]

We carry Adcom amps in-store, but I've got connections for other stuff too. ;)

[Tour2ma]

If you've only got one in-store option, Adcom's not a bad one to have...

IMO separates are the way to go. So much flexibility when building your way to your dream rig...

[MxStYlEpOlKmAn]

Fire dude....how much can u bag a GFA-545II? eh?

[fireshoes]

I think that's an older model. We don't carry it in our store at least, and it's not on Adcom's website. They do show some new models there though, and they are sexy! *drools* 300 x 7!

[joe logston]

i think about it now , i rather be rich to

[fireshoes]

Woohoo! The LSi15's arrived today. They are so awesome! It's the first time I've seen the LSi15's in the cherry finish in person and I love it. Can't wait to get the rest of the set!
