| Should I expect a discount from dealer for buying and installing complete system I really appreciate the comments. I am really getting a tremendous amount of useful information. I had never thought about a service agreement. That's a great idea.I don't think that around $3000 is a lot for the amount of work that needs to be do... | |
| Should I expect a discount from dealer for buying and installing complete system Right I’m not asking for a discount on labor. I think the price quoted is fair. My question was should I get a package deal on the equipment as I am probably spending $13 or $14 thousand on the gear. I don’t have the attitude at all that they are ... | |
| Should I expect a discount from dealer for buying and installing complete system I have dealt with this business for 30 years. They are highly respected. I have been doing so much research online. I have listened to Anthem and yes they are outstanding. I have always liked Paradigm and had Studio 100’s years ago thati I bought ... | |
| Should I expect a discount from dealer for buying and installing complete system The 1120 Anthem is 3500. Sony is $2100. My dealer is longtime Anthem dealer and says Sony is now better | |
| Should I expect a discount from dealer for buying and installing complete system Yes that is why I am buying all the equipment from dealer. I did check some independent installers. One of them did some work for me when I was having a problem with a zone 2 channel not working. While he was here he did a proper install of my HSU... | |

He told me $$499.I will ask him about a package deal$250 an hour may be expensiveIf I hired one guy $125 an hour it would probably work out to the same amount. I can live with wha... | |

| Should I expect a discount from dealer for buying and installing complete system He has it broken down with the installation and equipment. The equipment is all list price. Installation is $250 an hour for a 2 man crew. It's a big order, I think I should get a break on equipment. Is it customary to get bids from other dealers ... | |
| On order, new receiver When I first started think of changing my home theater, I did consider Anthem 1120 for the 11 amps. I would have enough to run 5.1.4 and to run my bedroom speakers. It’s $3500 so I think it’s out of my budget | |
| On order, new receiver Thanks for your responses. Since we are an Apple household with no PC's maybe I should wait for April and then decide. I have decided that I will have Atmos so with 720 I will need additional amps plus an amp for my bedroom, so 720 may not be righ... | |
| 5.1.2 Atmos The problem is in the installation. If I kept a 5.1 system I would be buy 2 Paradigm floor speakers and center speaker. All the wiring was done 11 years ago when this room was frame. The wires are all inside the walls and it all goes to a closet ... | |
| Should I buy Anthem 1120 for a 11 speaker system or Sony 5000 ES Whenever I post that I am planning on Sony ES I get negative comments but I think almost all the comments are from people who have not actually heard Sony ES. I have heard the Sony at my dealer's and was very impressed. I was also impressed with A... | |
| Should I buy Anthem 1120 for a 11 speaker system or Sony 5000 ES That's a good idea maxwave. Have you heard the Sony ES? My dealer said the room calibration is more advanced than Anthem which they sell | |
| Should I buy Anthem 1120 for a 11 speaker system or Sony 5000 ES @audiotroy Hi Audiotroy, Have you heard the Sony ES? I will probably buy the Sony 5000ES that my dealer recommends. He and the other co-owner worked with Sony to design the 3100ES and 5000ES.They have sold Anthem forever, they have been in busine... | |
| On order, new receiver @pcc67 I know Anthem sounds great, I have heard it with Paradigm speakers. Yesterday I was able to hear the Sony 3100 ES with a Paradigm Atmos system. I was also great. He claims the Sony ES sound calibration is more advanced than Anthem. The co-o... |
