My order status is "in production".. I can just see an assembly line where they take the units out of the original boxes and scuff them up a little, then pack them as refurb.

For those geniuses arguing whether these are 2 or 4 speakers----------they are 5 speakers!

hmm.. I ordered a pair myself... but knowing Dell.... well, if it's a pricing error, they simply will email a new statement with the 'correct' price after they discover the error, and will charge the 'correct' price if you didnt cancel it....

<< If anyone wants to use these with a DVD player or PS2 with Optical only digital outputs, check here for a converter:

Optical to Digital Converter

You will also need AC adapter and tip:

AC Adapter
Tip

and don't forget an extra optical cable for $2.80

Optical Cable 3ft

Word of warning. . .shipping is high ($8 for me), but they are quick and reliable.
>>



Thank's a bunch for this link. I've been looking for an optical adaptor for a long time for my 880's. One question, though. Have you actually gotten it and verified that it works? The only reason I ask is because on the picture, it shows the Optical as the output and Coaxial as the input. Shouldn't it be the other way around if you're plugging it into a PS2 or DVD player that has optical out? I would greatly appreciate any further information about this. Thanks.

Still no second confirmation, guess I'll have do some dell monkey huntin' tomorrow. Don't really need those speakers, since I just got the Z560s, but hey, I could try to hook them up as a center channel speaker or something :) An 8.2 system, now that sounds like fun. If I ever get them, that is...

Weird, the site might be getting busy.
I thries the ad model number instead of the dell#, it worked.
Then I had to use the back buttona and go through the process again to get the free shipping to appear.

But I'm in!!!!!

I got these last year and it came with an optical cable, which as far as I can tell is a standard RCA type cable. It also has a cool remote with a series of lights telling you how high the volume is. The subwoofer rocks.

jtate2 and others wandering about my post for the optical to coaxial converter:

I have not received mine yet to see if it works, and yes, the picture incorrectly shows the input/output (they used same pic as the other coaxial to optical digital converter).

I'm too lazy to post the link again, so if you need an adapter, or wanna wait, I'll let u know if mine works when i get it. PM me if you want to know how it works.

Parts Express just do a search for "optical converter"

I got my confirmation email! Both of them. I got one for $33 and the another $22.90. I got the 22.90 like a hour later because I though I forgot to press the submit button. The weird thing is I got an email about the 22.90 being ship 12/21/01 and nothing on the $33 yet.

Awesome deal.. juse ordered mine, and I really hope it goes through. I have my crappy 2 speaker set right now, and I've wanted new ones for a while, but never found a good price. This definately counts as a great deal. Thanks for the post...

i thought $22.90 is the correct price if the discounts are applied.
i don't understand how can people get different prices with the same discount (let's not consider ebates).
i'm confused...

also, ppl stop ordering so we can get ours :)
