I think right now the problem is how many TVs can you sell - eventually everyone has one and they last a long time. Scott

Amazon has much better customer service than any big box retailer? A number of people have multiple TVs I know some one who has a TV in every room of their house, 20 in all including the WC.!!

Even though Tweeters is not in N. Calif, I will surely miss a pre-tweeter set of stores known as Sound Advice in Florida as they surely taught me the fundamentals of a sound system at different price points. As a now past away expert their, Steve Zipser was surely a knowledgeable person versus the average sales person you find currently. With the addition of the crisis I find it insane that Genesis current speakers as a 4 piece set that equaled the Infinity IRS Betas currently sell for an excess of $92k. With that level of pricing, who can sell any quantity and stay in business?
