Yes indeed, even Harvey Norman don't carry all models. Better call before I proceed.

Yup, give a call first. Sometimes you can even get ZIIP with rm0 admin fee

ZIIP?

Displayed price at RM25XX.....zzzzzzz. Why not you go straight to Sony Centre displayed price mostly is RM2199.00. I'm still deciding whether to get HT-RT5 or Pioneer 5.1 Home theater.

Zero interest installment plan

Just quick updates:

Last night visited ESH @ Main Place.
Looking and asking about Sony HT-RT5, but unfortunately again, unit not registered in their systems. So, the sales guys dont know about this soundbar.

Seems like Sony never bother to do any promo for this soundbar.

BTW, any place to look more besides than Sony Center and HN?

And any review on Philips CSS5530?

This Philips is so similar but slightly difference then HT-RT5.

Need some input and advise...

Cheers

Don't need to keep asking about the CSS5530. There's a reason why until today there are no official reviews out there. If Philips don't want to send out review units then what to do? It's not like it's damn cheap to just suka suka buy and do review on it.

Ahahaha...its keep me wondering why the salesGuy from Desa wanna me visit them to do some audition on the Philips, they said this Philips can beat Yamaha...

Store audition =/= home/room usage.

Environment is one of the biggest factors in sound quality of which many people don't seem to realize. What you hear in store will not be what you hear at home. Even if the audition is done in an audio treated room in their store, that would still be different than that of your home.

Philips isn't sending out their CSS5530 for who knows what reason. Everytime I ask, they say if I want a B5 instead or not. I don't, because I already have the HTL9100 which sounds damn near like the B5.

Oh I wish that our local dealer have similar T&C as overseas part such as:

a) Purchased and return if not satisfy within stipulated time.

b) A good coverage of warranty.

Too bad, never going to happen.

Best you can do is sell 2nd hand mint condition with some losses.

Its keep me wonder why Philips keep pushing B5 instead of CSS5530, is there any clues? Sound no good?

yeah that's what I thought ...zzzzzz

I like RT5 because it is wireless but the rear speaker is rather small. look more like pc speakers

I just came back from sunway HN hoping to buy RT5 but no sales guy approach me nor service me at all. Any names of sales guy you guys like to recommend?

Ya, Sunway not much service, guess most of them busy. Just go Sony centre at Midvalley.

which floor Desa Home shop located at lowyat?

I think either 1st or 2nd floor, I usually turn up till 4th floor by escalator and turn down, free then walk in and see any bargain stuff or not
Now AVR already have, waiting for subwoofer that very rare have offers

rm2000 for soundbar that sounds mediocre at best?
an edifier r1800 for rm300 will sound better.
a rm1000 wharfedale will sound like diamonds.

don't do it.
don't get soundbars.

Harvey Norman Sunway dont have a stock for HT-RT5.
Sehhh...

Dont know why HT-RT5 is sold out...is it due hot items or got some promo kaw kaw?

I saw one RT in HN IOI city mall last week. I didn't ask for the price tho. You can try call HN IOI City mall before pay them a visit.
