Typical New Speaker Dealer Discount A Buyer May Expect


I'm searching for new speakers and am willing to spend around $7K to $8K, or so.  I'm wondering if that amount generally represents a final discounted cost off MSRP of $9K to $10K, or 15% to 20%?  This figure is what I've estimated based on a number of member comments in terms of new equipment discounts.  Do discounts vary significantly from dealer to dealer, speaker brand to brand in this price range?  This will help me in terms of budgeting and in terms of which speakers to begin the process of narrowing down for final selection, and whether to purchase new or used.

IMO, it depends on the dealer.  Dealers in midtown Manhattan are carrying a lot higher overhead than ones in smaller Midwest cities.  Sometimes a dealer will be closing out a line of speakers you happen to want and you may pick up a sizable discount.  
All that aside, first find a speaker you really love.  Then worry about the discount. Really.
