Me again! Budget surround system...Ash/John?

chris_ie

Hey guys,
Another one for ya. My sister is looking for a budget surround system and is willing to spend around 200Euro. She has been looking at the HTS3367 and an LG one. I dont think the LG one was up to much so the Philips one is leading the way. Just wondering if you guys knew of any better options for a budget all in one system? Or do you guys in the Philips shop do the HTS3367 (In littlewoods for €189?

Cheers

chris_ie

Any ideas?

Chris,

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you!

Yep that's a mega price on that 3367 - but we will happily match it - I also have one open box HTS3365 which I can do at just €89.99 (in perfect nick!)

Keep me posted - we have both items in stock,

Cheers John, what the difference between the HTS3365 and HTS3367?

Looking at spec sheets and dont see anything too major.

There is the 2 links - basically the 3365 is a 5.1 system with satellite speakers - whilst the 3367 has 2 front speakers with stands - in most / all other respects they are the same thing!

Thanks again and keep me posted,

ATB,

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Hi guys

Actually the speakers with the stands are designed for rear use they have far longer lenghts of speaker cable than the compact front speakers.

I guess there is no reason why you couldn't extend the cable lenght though should you wish to use them as the main Left & Right speakers

We have one here in store if you fancy a look see at it.

Cheers
Ash

chris_ie

Sis has got back to me and she likes the idea of the tall speakers for the rear so looks like it'll be the HTS3367. Littlewoods €189

Maybe a scart cable aswell and cable to connect to sky box (cant remember what connections a normal sky box have )

I've told her that the sound coming for her sky box wont be surround but the DPLII processing might do an OK job for her. She might be getting Sky+ later so it would do until then.

Hi John,
Sent you a PM yesterday about a 32" TV and will take that open box HTS3365 if its still available since chris_ie is going for the 3367. I also have two of those USB keys reserved so once I decide on what TV to opt for maybe we could get the lot delivered together? Thanks.

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

You should have them in your place tomorrow.

Thanks for the order

Hi Ash,
I will be taking the USB keys and hopefully the HTS3365 that chris_ie passed on. I'm trying to decide on a TV to pick also. Sent yourself and John a PM yesterday. Was hoping to get the lot delivered in one go and maybe save a bit on postage costs:D. Was just waiting for a reply to the PM to finalise. Thanks.

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Hi Chalky

Must check my pm's
I'll hold the Swarovski for you.

Hey Ash,

Never mind! My other sister was in town there collecting something and seen the TV and sound system being loaded into the delivery van :P

Hope this helps

Hey Ash,
I replied to you in another thread regarding the delivery of this and my 32PFL7404 (sweet tv!). Another query, my sis has caught the home entertainment bug now. She's interested in buying a tv in the future. Fancies a 40-42 inch as this is what she had before. I was telling her about the one I got off you guys and she wouldn't mind having ambilight also. So I've suggested the 42PFL8404 to her. Last I seen on here the prices was €899 (after boardies discount) with 4 year warranty. Is this still the case?

Cheers,
Chris.

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Hi Chris

Yep thats the latest Boardies price.
I have them in stock as well - finally!

You know you can't have you sister getting a bigger TV then you - shall I set aside a 47PFL8404 for you:D:D:D

Cheers
Ash

Ha! Dont tempt me!! My current tv in the sitting room is a 40" Samsung, its a good TV but have to say I'm liking the Philips ha! I think I'll leave it for a while now though...:D

Hi John,
I see that you are active this morning and was hoping you could help me. You might have seen fro my previous posts that I am looking for a price on a cinema system to go with a 32PFL7404 that I am waiting to order. Was thinking of something along the lines of the HTS3365 you mentioned on a post last week. Can you price something similar for me?

Thanks,
Chalky

Chalky,

apologies ...again!

What about the HTS3020 - we can do this at just EURO €129.95 and it will match your 7404 quite well (although you would of course be much better going for a full separates system!)

Apologies again for the delay in getting back to you and keep me posted if we can assist,

ATB,

chalky024

Thanks John,
Nicola did suggest this model to me but I would prefer to get something that will upscale to 1080. I was hoping to get something with small speakers as well. Any other suggestions?

Nicola on behalf of Ash

May be that one of the HTS6134 is booked. Will let everyone know asap whether or not its taken.

Thanks, Nicola.

chalky024

Hi again John,
That HTS3164 looks to be what I'm looking for but one final question before I confirm:o Do you have any of the HTS3365 units that you mentioned here

If not then I reckon the 3164 is the unit for me:D

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Nicola on behalf of Ash

Hey Chalky24,

As far as I know the HTS3365 is gone but the HTS3164 is very similar.

There's 2 in Richer sounds and I have one held for another boardie. Do you want me to pop your name on the second one?

Thanks, Nicola.

chalky024

Hi John/Nicola
You can put my name down for the HTS3164 so please. Can you tell me if the 32PFL7404 comes with a stand as standard?

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Hi Chalky024

I've requested a HTS3164 for you and I'll chase up the 32PFL7404 for you - should have this towards the of the week.

I've got the Swar USB keys (x2) here for you as well.

Once everything is in my clutches I'll let you know.


Cheers
Ash

chalky024

That's great Ash, welcome back. I assume the TV does come with a stand?
Can you PM me with the total cost including delivery to Co Tipp please?

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Hi Chalky024

Cheers!
Sorry I ment to say yep the TV does come with a small table top foot which allows you to angle the TV left or right if you are sitting off centre.

I'll look into the total courier price to Co Tipp and pm you.

Cheers
Ash

chalky024

Incidentally Ash,
Could you break down the price for me since the USB keys are for friends who are buying through me? Thanks.

chalky024

Hi Ash,
Got the delivery this afternoon, all now connected up and another very happy customer:D:D:D Many thanks for all your help and patience.
