Hi,
I am new with this home theater thingy. So, please guide me..
I am planning to buy Mordaunt Short speakers (MS302 x 4, MS304 x 1 and MS309i x 1 sub). Anyone know where I can get it from? How much does it cost? Does it include the cables or I have to purchase it separately? If separately, what cables do I need,how much does it cost and from where I can purchase it? I am planning to pair the speaker with the coming soon new Yamaha V663.
Thanks

It does not include the cables and the sub interconnect. Since you are buying the whole package, at least can bargain. The shop itself should have all these.

QUOTE(htkaki @ Apr 7 2008, 04:11 PM) Sorry but I don't know why people keep pointing to Hi-Way Laser. My only experience there was not good. 1st they are not that friendly as if you don't have money or they look at you and thinking here's another time waster. Their price also expensive. Simply say they quote my NAD C515BEE about 400 more expensive than A&L at Amcorp. A little bit different is ok but not too much la. Well that's my personal experience la. Maybe some of you guys differ from mine. So you can push your luck. For me I'm not going back there even if they are the only one got something that I want.

It's a matter of personal preference. The bi-pole does help in disseminating the surr effect. But, in my scenario, it just doesnt make the cut that I thought it would.
