    Hmm they didn't have that posted anywhere. I have to go pick them up. The center I had to choose a different store. So maybe mine didn't have it posted because they were out of stock of the center?

      It could've been ordered. It is a non advertised deal. The employee should've said something, I sold 10 full Klipsch systems yesterday just by telling people if they buy the center they'll get the rears free.

        The two that were floating around in that area knew how to work the demo computer thing and that was about it.

          I went back up there and asked about it. Between two workers and a GM they said the rears became free, but you had to pay full price for everything else.

          So I have everything minus a sub, speaker wire, and stands now. I guess the easiest solution might be to just make a shelf...

            I rung out a ton of them and with the two towers, the center, and the surrounds not the bookshelves, it came out to $699.97.

              I'm at the same price. Any idea how long the deal is active? I need to just get them out of the box first and see if I'd benefit from the rears anyways first.

                  Anybody have any thoughts on the new Vizio soundbars? I'm gonna be moving into a new house soon and the fiance isn't big on having wires all around the living room and I don't really want to do wires underneath the floor.

                    No clue on the Vizio soundbars, but I usually run a search on avsforum for anything audio related. Obviously, if anyone here on OS has any experience with Vizio soundbar, please chime in.

                    Consider cable raceways if, and that is a BIG if, you really want to go with the standard speaker and wiring systems. My buddy recently had his living room remodeled with hardwood flooring and he kept his definitive technology front towers, center speakers and back surround sound speakers. Speaker wires were elegantly hidden with cable raceways.

                      I would go with a 2.1 Klipsch sound bar before I would buy Vizio sound.

                        I'm thinking I might downgrade to the KF-26. The Yamaha RX-V673 I got is rated for 90W per channel. Not sure I'd be getting my money's worth since it seems like it couldn't power the KF-28 to its full potential. Definitely feel free to tell me otherwise.

                            I definitely could, but then if I ever go 7.2 I'd have to undo the bi-amp and I'd be back where I started. I need to get the speakers out of the box and see how they are size wise. The misses might make me get something smaller anyways...

                              Do you have the boxes with you right now?

                              If so, they're bigger than you think. Even when you see them in store, you don't realize how deep they are. They really look nice, though. I took a picture with them compared to my 59" screen somewhere, I'll find that. If I can't, I'll take another picture for you.

                              Anyway, I was just thinking that bi-amping them would get the Yamaha to produce enough good wattage to both speakers. That's what I'm doing right now. I know I could do much better which is why I'm always considering another receiver, but one reason I kind of can't right now is that anything "better" is also actually bigger, and that can't fit in my stand.

                              Anyway, yeah I downgraded from 7.2 to 5.1 but am still using the same receiver. I'm now bi-amping, though.

                                They're still in the box. Receiver gets here tomorrow so I haven't bothered yet. If the cost to return it to Amazon isn't much I'll look into returning it. I'd rather go bi-amp now over paying $50 in shipping and be upside down.
