Check our the Paradigm "Persona" series. The similar size center channel isn't far off the mark in price.

Yup. The virus started at Paradigm and spread to KEF.

Or maybe it started with these guys. $US550K for this center.

I know, eh. What the hell were they thinking?

They're a work of art though compared to these.

Especially that pair of red kissing voodoo monkey things ...

Mojo I’d be afraid to have them in my house ...
I’d be be up all night because I’d be thinking that they may sneak upstairs and eat me while I was sleeping.

Lol! Nice Rich.

Visions prices some stuff arbitrarily because they carry the line but not certain items I would say. We bought an optoma uhz65 on their site, that they didnt have, and they had to source it sell it at their listed price -3000$ below market. Eeek!

Since then, I think they list stuff they dont have, but technically carry, at can’t fail prices. My fault? Lol. They also dont allow online shopping orders to PEI anymore it seems. Used to use them for sourcing gear. Great store and I usually hit it when I visit Calgary in the NE location on 32nd ave. Great place to strike a deal.

Edited:
I should add, this was during the whole trade tariff debacle with Trump, so many products sky rocketed in price overnight. Im sure many retailers/distributers were caught off guard by this. I’m not an evil guy taking advantage of the situation. Just wierd timing.

Didn't sleep a wink last night. All I could think of was the voodoo monkeys gobbling my 'nads.
