>>Historically, instead of getting what I want, I've always settled for what appears to be a deal, or bang for the buck. That's what probably lead me to Axiom, which has turned out to be a very pleasant surprise.

I spend a lot of time looking for that "deal" as well. The trick, I think, is to keep your mind open to the fact that there may NOT be a real deal in the particular product you are looking for, and then you just have to compromise or wait for what you want.

That said, "great deal" products do show up all the time. I wouldn't be surprised if the Pioneer turns out to be a great product.

Hey, dumb question for you all. I can't find the model with the "K" on the end up here -- is the "K" suffix something special or are we just talking about the regular 1014 model here ?
