avman Posted August 30, 2001 Share Posted August 30, 2001 not blocking the surrounds-good point. i'm in the gradual process of furnishing/carpeting,etc. my theater room. being in the 'biz' i just recently aquired a contact for theater seating (similar to cineloungers). the company i work for is known for LOW prices, we base our buisiness on low margin/high volume. considering the typical HIGH mark-up on furniture, this is a great opportunity for me, my store manager-who is also building a theater room, a home builder who builds dedicated theater rooms whom i've done work for, and any of my fellow 'klipschers' to get some really cool furniture at reasonable prices. i'm NOT commissioned, just want to pass this info along, and get some buisiness for this new vendor. any serious interests-post or pm me. avman. ------------------ 1-pair klf 30's c-7 center sony strda-777ES receiver NEW! sony playstation 2! dishnetwork model 7200 dishplayer satellite receiver/digital bitstream recorder pioneer dvd player sharp 35"tv panamax max dbs+5 surge protector/power conditioner monster cable interconnects/12 gua.speaker wire surrounds and a 'teens sub coming!
