Post by @fieldcar post #4163 2 pages back, for Best Buy clearance prices just dropped again. This is the third time.

Prices are over 50% off on most items and open box is basically free lol

If only you are lucky enough to find stock
Yea in my area seems like Kef is readily available. I bought two pairs of open box height speakers and just got two brand new ones for less than the open box price.

Also got some rear surrounds which are pretty small but honestly good enough and perfect for my tiny room, they can hang from the wall.

Received this in the inbox recently, good discount on some discontinued Hidzs products. S9Pro $79 for example, S8 is $69.

Ditto. I've bought several Apos Certified products and have had no issues- looked like new, new packaging with all accessories, etc.

Same here. Happy.

Just ordered two pairs of R8A to wall mount as height speakers for 2/3 the cost of a single pair of the meta version. Was originally looking at the Arendal heights, but now have an all KEF system matching the 5ea R3s. Thank you for the alert!

Really looking forward to using Auro3D upmixer. Shame to have all these speakers and be limited to two channel.

Must have been a mistake. They're 699 now.
Yes, very possibly, it was a big discount. They were $349 for a few hours at least. I posted it on Reddit as well, several people got them at $349, hopefully they'll honor the price.

Here's the question... are they any good? I would love a nice light pair to replace my old CA Vegas. I only keep them because they are the only ones that I don't feel them when I'm laying down in bed. I can't be the only person that uses IEMs in bed.

They are good, and the fit is excellent. Whether they are $700 good is another question, they are certainly $349 good. For $149 the IE200 is quite similar, particularly if you use different tips or wrap/seal the nozzle to defeat the bass leak gimmick. Fit on that is identical. I don't think the IE200 is quite as good as the IE600 but it's 1/4 of the price. I use SoftEars UC on the IE200, they are good.

Yea indeed, I was going to get the SVS height speakers, but honestly with Amir’s review of the in wall and Erin’s review and clearly the price I just grabbed these. They are definitely not bad at all, and I think I can easily cut them off at 120 hz with my processor but probably wouldn’t need too.

But just a heads up for you to improve the volume output with these speakers and cleanliness you should limit the low frequency. *Just in case you missed Erin’s written review. I would highly suggest reading it if you haven’t

How do they compare with the N5005 at $200?

I’ll be putting the crossover relatively high. 120-150hz depending on how they measure in REW. They come tomorrow so I’ll be able to mount and play with them over the weekend.
