viv.ie

Hi Guys
Purchased a 32inch sonyLCD plus Sony Home Theatre System today in Currys Carrickmines Retail Park for e549.00.Super deal as this TV is e829 in PowerCity Bray and the Theatre system in reduced to e200 from e269 in Powercity.Total e1029 Powercity,e549 Currys:).The Theatre System upscales to 1080P plus has DTS audio.radio and Sony Bravia Sync(Both units talk to each other via 1 remote or something like that).I bought a stand in Powercity e80 much cheaper than the one they have in Currys and looks identical,plus HDMI for e9,Currys wanted about e30.This deal is not in any of their fliers and they have about 50 in stock,but were selling quickly,if anyone is interested I Would get there tomorrow as at this price I cant see stock lasting until Sunday.Theatre System model number DAV-DZ260

Zonda999

Wow, that really is a great deal alright. I wonder if this is nationwide....

Anyway, i'm guessing this is the free dvd HC system. I have one and its an amazing system for 200e. Can connect sky, 360 and ps3 all through digital optical and the 5.1 surround is great. SO loud too, and dont get me started on how much of a difference the subwoofer makes.

The 32v4000 is a great tv too and 540e would be quite a good price for it on its own in a shop, not a mind with a HC system thrown in.

This really is a bargain lads!!!

I just saw this advertised on Skysports News with a free sony theatre system. I might make a trip over tomorrow night, a bit late now and need to think about it.

The Aussie model in that review is definitely not the same as the irish model Its Full HD for a start, in that review and the european model, for sure is only HD Ready.

You were robbed for the HDMI lead, only e2.50 in Tescos!

The deal sounds awfully tempting but I'd be shot if I came home with another telly!

399 sterling up north. Given the exchange rates atm it could almost be worth the trip over the weekend if you were interested in this. Working out around 462/463 atm.

Yeah I was looking at that. Didnt realise there was a few diffent models with the same referecne numbers.

Any one got the exact spec? IF it was full HD I would have bought one tomorrow

market_garden

Here's the specs for this model.

Question about this model. It says that you can "Play from and record direct to USB". Does that mean you can record tv onto usb through the dvd player ?

I bought it a couple of weeks ago, I will have a look for you Tusky I have set it up but havn't had time to play with it yet, I didn't see a thing about record thou in the manual.

Had a glance over the manual there. available here

Didnt have time for a full look, but on page 66 was the only reference to recording i could find, and it seem to just be talking about recording mp3 to the USB from an audio cd. So not much use.

bored_newbie

On page 41, the subtitle under Enjoying DivX Videos says
(Except for United Kingdom and North American models)

So no divx playback?

madmoe

Just called them there now, still a few left, though not many.....

CantGetNoSleep

Anyone know if this is available in other stores?

madmoe

Nope, I asked them that as well.

If anyone is thinking of going North for this Currys have a "ring and reserve" facility on their website so that you can be sure that they will have stock for you!

I rang Liffey Valley and they have them too! Just got two of them. Thanx so very much to the OP!

tabatha

sold out in northern ireland already

Ri_Nollaig

sold out in ballincollig and mahon point too

ch750536

The site says:

DivX : No

Baffled.

ch750536

Also no audio in to the surroundsound apparently, 1 device only.

Comment on Amazon:
'Sadly, it can't connect to the 360, so i've still got to use the tv speakers when playing my xbox. Theres just no audio in! But i may be able to use an optical splitter. (hopefully) '

madmoe

I have a Wii so the front two speakers in the TV will do me.

It has no DivX which is a bummer but it does have a VGA connector so I can connect my netbook and watch movies that way.

Surprising, 20 in Mahon Point when I rang about 11am.

Got mine about 12.30pm, must have been a close shave!

Hi
I have the DAV-DZ260 for a while now, just a quick note to say, that the scart on the back is two way for audio, so with a scart to phono adaptor, you can input an audio source, such as a tv set-top-box.

sister rang, they said they had 10 left, went only for them to have said sold out

cableguy.ie

Seems to be on the power city website now for 549.00

Zonda999

This is the power city link. Do NOT buy this one,though. The model in this one is the 32L4000 rather than the V available at Currys. The 32" L is s**t. Only 15000:1 contrast ratio compared to the 32v4000's, 30000:1. There is no Bravia engine either which means SD will look horrendous. Very cheap looking also. Do NOT buy this tv. Tell them to give you the 32V4000 or else you're going to Currys

cableguy.ie

Sorry bout that thought it was the same one.
Bit Busy in work and not supposed to be on line

eioneill

Just seen this post now. If someone really wants this package. Ring around. They have/had limited stock in all Curry's stores. Limited to 1 package per customer. It was advertised in the Metro today. Savage deal in my opinion.

tabatha

where is the best/cheapest place to get the wall mount bracket for these?

What are the chances of them doing that deal?

Parents are looking for a tv like this at the moment.

Zonda999

Hard to know really. They wont be getting any business otherwise so they'll have to offer something to anyone who runs that explanation by them

ayatollah

i just saw the ad on the tele there,

looks like they're going to be nationwide!

jobs a good 'un

i think i might get a friend of mine to get it for me in cork!

rosboy

Just got mine in Curry's in Limerick. A big thanks to the OP. The guys in Curry's said they got 43 in yesterday. Now (or as of 10 min ago anyways), they had 5 left. And someone had just called in on the phone to check for stock levels, so make that 4 left probably.

God bless the Bargain Alert forum!

Edit: As the OP and Zonda999 said on the first page, the home cinema system included is a DAV-DZ260. Curry's have the RRP at €219, but it available on Pixmania for about €200 inc postage (http://www.pixmania.ie/ie/uk/s_action/search/index.html)...either way a great deal!

i bought the kdl32v4000 and the dav-dz260 today from currys for in my spare room to watch dvds & play on my wii

couldnt believe it when there was no optical out on the back of the tele! is that the only way i can send audio into the sound system? using the red and white audio out sockets on the tv and into the scart on the rear of the surround sound box???

will that detect the audio automatically? for example if i decided to plug my wii into the component sockets aswell (on the tv of course), i would get sound out of the surround sound system? would i need to select a certain mode or something?

any help from anyone would be appreciated
thanks in advance

rosboy

Just noticed that I'm the only one to have thanked the OP for the heads up on the offer.....come on guys....show your appreciation to the man:p

omb0wyn5ehpij9

Sooooooooo tempted!!!

Clareman

Got 1 in Limerick as well, plan was to hook it up in the spare room to my PC and Xbox, herself now wants it in the bedroom, I think I'm going to have to get another 1

hey which currys where you in town or the one out by the parkway, might see if they have any left tomorrow and try convince the dad to buy one.

market_garden

Just got the TV in Carrickmines. They had run out of Home Cinema Systems so they will call me when it's back in stock in about 2 weeks time.
I can collect it then. Not too bad.

Isn't it a Dixon's in town? I got mine in Parkway.

Qwerty?

Richersounds have the TV for 319 sterling (http://www.richersounds.com/showproduct.php?cda=showproduct&pid=SONY-KDL32V4000U)
so about €372, and Pixmania have the sound system for €185, so if you miss this deal you can pick it up at a similar price, well about €50 more including delivery.

Zonda999

TYHat RS price for the tv alone is an amazing price IMO. I dont think the lads are able to ship it down to us at the moment, though. Supply issues, i assume. Thinkin of headin up to Belfast to get a tv off them next month...

no it changed to currys there about two months ago, hopefully not many people realise that so might pop in to town tomorrow(eventhough currys and dixons were the same company and had mostly similar deals, but fingers crossed people don't know that either) a lot of hoping in that sentence and still gotta convince the dad haha

Osuileabhain

Bought two from Currys Liffey Valley to celebrate the Eurozone recession announced earlier today - worst Irish sales quarter since 1983 apparently - wasnt apparent at Currys

-anyways were all hooked up at home. Watching 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' with the new home theatre surround system - class - hope loads of you availed of the offer -what a deal -

thanks for the heads up

jahalpin

They have the same deal in the Sony Centres. I was in Swords today and they had some in stock

Do-more

If anyone is still looking for this, I was in Harvey Norman in Mullingar about 2 hours ago and asked if they could match the Currys deal, they said yes but didn't have the DVD/surround sound in stock only the telly.

The guy checked the stock in other stores. From what I remember there was just 1 free stock in Swords, more in Dundalk , Limerick and Tralee had about 7 or 8 each.

I wasn't looking to buy this myself but if I was I would have asked the guy to give me the Telly now and put the DVD/surround sound on back order, not sure if he would have agreed but might be worth a shot!
