We'll be ordering the Z680's in the next few hours and I wanted to know if there is any reason I should put it off or something. We are getting them for $250 shipped.

Mods: I put this in OT because I'll be ordering in a few hours or less, basically once dad is home and he is leaving work right now

We'll consider it. Can you pay shipping?

they're great, but I heard best buy was clearing them out for $199 which means a new model will be on the way. I paid $250 for mine about 3 months ago. They've been on the market for a while now.

We called up Best Buy and found out they were clearing out the 5300's or something of the sort. There is even one Z680 left in Indiana. Have you heard any news of a new speaker set?

that's the thread where people saw them clearing them out for $199.

They're not clearing out the 5300's, they're a new set without the decoding module of the z680's. The z680's are pretty old, I'm pretty sure a new version is in the works. It just depends on when they'll come out. This is all just speculation on my part, but the only reason best buy is clearing them out is to make room for a new model. I went to my local best buy and didn't see the z680 demo station that is usually there.

I saw that thread and its a month old. They don't have them anymore. If they release a new set within a month, I'll return what I have and get the new ones, but they'll probably be $400 for a few months.
