The problem with buying AVI from Speaker City is that the price they sell them for is way more than the price you could get if you buy them directly from AVI as an end user consumer

Speaker City is "planning" on moving !! We don't have a location yet, but we know that we need at least double the area that we currently have !!

So no-one press the panic button okay..........key word being "moving" - not "closing".

As far as speakers are concerned, we do MB Quart, AVI and Focal - a lethal combination !!

Someone said our prices were higher than if you called AVI directly. Let me address this if I could.....we sell the AVI products at what the company asks us to sell them for. However, this is not the first time that we have heard that AVI will sell them to consumers cheaper. So what I have done is place "all" my AVI speakers and subwoofers at or below cost, because what they are doing is B.S. - they are about to get a severe kick in the a** from us - so anyone looking for a steal of a deal on AVI come on down, were blowing out whatever we have left. BSM, FRM, EL, XL plus all thir subs !!

Because of this they are going to lose one of their biggest customers........except for the "King of AVI - Mr.Oakley"

We have some killer deals on Focal and MB Quart on until the end of January.

cheers !!
