Try this site: http://www.electronicexpress.com/product?prod_id=3594
I'm NOT sure if this site is reputable. Anyone??? That's a killer deal. I guess that's for each.



Are these the same as AS-B2 but floor standing?

I have to keep in mind that I will have to get these speakers from the states (i live in australia)

It will cost me 440AUD for AS-B2 INCLUDING shipping, and 600AUD to buy the AS-B2 from a shop here in Australia.

Shipping rates blow, but australian prices are higher regardless. What a joke.

Its hard to get good audio gear on the cheap

does anyone know if there are any major differences between the B1 and the new B1.2

I want to know that as well. I found a deal on a 1.2 and Im wondering if I should jump.

Also are there any audioadvisor coupons that would drive the price under $100? Does anyone know if you can bargain with the Audioadvisor salespeople?

Just want to point out that Teac has no volume control. It is a 3-channel power amplifier.

Is there any way I can get the Sonic T-AMP to power a 2.1? I'd like to use my powered subwoofer with that setup. Would there be any way to wire this? I might get the Athena and sell my RD-6108 for a T-Amp.

RD-6108 as in Sherwood RD6108 receiver?

That's a sweet piece. Would be interesting to see a comparison between the 6108 and the T-amp.

Does your power sub speaker-level inputs? You can always run a powered sub that way.
