postjack Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I see Todd has started carrying Vivid speakers. The big ones get pretty spendy but I gotta say that $3390 for the V1s is a great deal on the best desktop speakers I've yet had the pleasure of hearing. Put them on stands in free air and they could easily pummel a medium-sized room into submission, too. http://www.ttvjaudio.com/category_s/1963.htm That's per speaker. Still pretty spendy.

skullguise Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Yeesh, I didn't realize it was per speaker....! Indeed, too spendy for me. I've heard the (I think it's the right model) B1's at Fidelis in NH....VERY nice speakers. I envy Stretch with his desktops...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Dang, bad timing. I have had my PB12 (the older down firing one) for a bunch of years now and it has served me well. The fun I could have with an Ultra. Drool. Whenever your funds permit, SVS makes a great product, although the departure of that ported box sku does make a bit of a hole in their lineup considering getting a 12 inch sub is now 200 bucks more than before. More amp headroom, but still... I already have the cheap SVS, but that's for my cheap system, I wanted the nicer SVS (the SB12) for my nicer system, and I probably will eventually get a Gallo Strada/SVS Ultra system, I'm just holding off. I sure hope they replace it with something. PB13/SB13? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcpoor Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) If you had to pick one, which would it be. It looks like the Sansaire is significantly less money but available for pre-order as the first batch is sold out. I can wait, so if the two are considered equal, I would go with the one which is more than $200 less. Thanks. aren't both sansaire and anova $199? http://sansaire.com/product/sansaire-sous-vide-circulator/ http://anovaculinary.com/products/anova Edited February 14, 2014 by dcpoor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopstretch Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 That's per speaker. Still pretty spendy. D'oh! I got mine direct from Vivid in South Africa (they were a show demo set I think) for R25,000 ($2300) the pair. And they refinished them in my choice of color for free. That's looking like a pretty good deal now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wmcmanus Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Amazon deal of the day, about $50 off the normal price. http://www.amazon.com/gp/goldbox/ref=pe_36900_112766240_dotd_h_t I'll have to look around the place, but I suspect that I have about half of them on BluRay already (mostly the oldies).)

Dusty Chalk Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Oh, that's right. The better sale is when B&N puts them on sale (IIRC), I had forgotten that when I posted, and didn't bother double-checking, since I'm not getting anything. Sorry about that.
