Why not the Panasonic LF-D311? I currently have the LF-D211. For storage, I actually prefer DVD-RAM because it's like having another volume in your system. The LF-D311 has the ability to write DVD-R.

You can get the Z560 from http://www.2buystore.com for $139.71 with free ground shipping.

I don't think you can really compare them if the two are priced so different. The Z560 is priced less than half of the Promedia 4.1 If you don't throw in price, I would take the 4.1 over the Z560 (I currently have the v2-400 and I heard the z560). Speaker compartion is very difficult because it's subjective. This message has been edited by vl168 on 01-11-2002 at 01:46 PM

AOaR, I've seen them at my local COMPUSA and Bestbuy. The V4.1 were $269. Bestbuy still have the V2-400 but for $249. I bought my brand new V2-400 for $149 at COMPUSA 2 months back when they got rid them. I saw another COMPUSA store had the same deal 2 weeks ago but were gone when I went out to get them this weekend. I decided last week that I would get another set and use part of it for the center/sub. I guess I have to wait for Best Buy to discount their 2.1 or V2-400. I am also hoping find a good deal on a used set.

I've seen the 4.1 price at $269 at 2 different stores in the past few weeks. Maybe it will go down further once then get the 5.1 stock.

bugman, What are you referring to when you said brackets for $59.99. I thought the WB-1 bracket works for all ProMedia. If you are referring to the speaker stands, I went with the Radio Shack ones because I didn't want to pay shipping cost for heavy items. I just got my WB-1 brackets and it's a lot cheaper than any of the universal brackets I've seen in the local stores. It has a clean and simple design (not vertical adjustment) but serves it's purpose for less than $30.

You have to look on the bright side. You have been enjoying great sounds off your computer for the past 6 months. Isn't technology great?

What is the part number for the wall mounting brackets? I am having trouble searching for the parts. As for paying only $150 for the v2.400. I was going to buy the 4.1 but one of the sale associate told me that there was a brand new v2 for $150 (guess they want to clear their inventory). I just couldn't pass up the deal.

I recently got a set of v2-400 from my local CompUSA for $149 and I have to say these things are darn impressive. However, I think it's too loud to have it right on my computer desk. I want to mount these on the wall so are there wall mounting brackets available that can be purchase? I don't really want to bend the original brackets just yet. TIA Van
