Please log in for more thread options Hiya. I've just recently decided to purchase a receiver and speakers to create a home theatre for myself. I've done a fair bit of research, come up with the particular models I want, checked out the prices at Bay/Bloor Radio and Future Shop and Best Buy and 2001 Audio/Video and found that the prices are absolutely outrageous compared to the prices down in the States. The speakers I want (Yamaha NS555) are $900 at 2001 A/V, but I check out some of the online stores in America, and some come to around $400 Canadian (and that's with taxes, duty and S&H)! So to my fellow Torontonians, where are some good electronics stores to check out? I assume the stores up and down Yonge Street in the downtown area might have the speakers and the receiver (Yamaha RX-V750) I want, but are there any others I should check out? Thanks to all who can help out! vij | |||||||||||||

Cool, thanks for the heads up. Wish they had a catalogue on their website, rather than just a list of brands. Gonna check 'em out in a few days when the weather's a bit better. cheers, vij > check out Kromer, they'll bargain down a bit.
