    Hey folks,

    My wife and I just moved back to Ireland and we need to buy our home entertainment stuff pretty much from scratch, I've been having trouble sorting through the ridiculous number of options available but think I've approximately settled on a TV and probably a soundbar, and you guys seem to have a good price on each

    For the TV, I wanted 50 or 55" with 4K resolution. 
    We weren't pushed on curved screens or 3D but wouldn't discount TVs with either feature either - I settled on the Samsung UE55JU6400 which you guys currently have listed at 999 EUR

    For a Soundbar, my first thought was to get a Samsung also, one of the HW-J6xxx series, but then I saw you have the offer on the Monitor Audio ASB2B - if there were any left at the lower £299 price it seems to be a no-brainer

    Anything else you'd recommend instead of those? I can go a little higher on the TV if it's noticably better, but the 6400 seemed the best value at that price point when I looked around

    Are there some of the £299 ASB2Bs left? If not, what would you recommend in a similar price range?

    Hi  Ste.phen.

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    The JU6400 range from Samsung are every nice indeed, well spec'd and well reviewed.
    However at the moment the 55JU6400 is unavailable to purchase online and would need collected from the Belfast store.

    You could perhaps also look at the Panasonic 55CX680 priced at 949.99 Euro (Inc Delivery)
    https://euro.richersounds.ie/p-201325-viera-tx55cx680b.aspx

    On the soundbar I would 100% go for the Monitor Audio ASB2B. At the discounted price it is a steal :)

    Let me know what you think on the TV front.

    Any other questions drop me a post.

    Thanks for the reply; I do have a preference for Samsung if possible, but I'll also check out the specs on that Panasonic - 
    If I bump the budget a bit, do you have the Samsung UE55JU6800 in stock for delivery?  (and is there anything significantly different about it that would make it a poor choice?)

    If I want to get that TV (or the panasonic, but leaning towards the Samsung) and sound bar - will I get the discounted price if i call, or will I need one of you folks who post on Boards to set it up for me?

    Hi Ste.phen

    Kenny is off today but maybe I can help. If you would like me to give you a call just send me a reply or a PM with your number and I can process that for you with the prices Kenny has been quoting. Similarly if you want to call the store just ask for myself or Kenny (Kenny will be back tomorrow) and we can sort it out for you.

    Many thanks

    David

    Just wanted to drop a note to let you know both have arrived save and sound; thanks for your help!

    Once I get these set up, looks like they're both going to treat us well :)
