Another thumbs up for the Sevenoaks dealership - they tend to stock slightly higher end gear, so could quite easily slip a few SB's into most sales... :) How about a Squeezebox3 to go with your 50-inch Pioneer plasma, sir? Oh, go on then... -- Milhouse

I think Richersounds prefer to stock end of line products, imports or own brands to keep the prices down. Sevenoaks are another nationwide hifi store, but I would think the likes of Currys, Dixons, PC World etc. may have a better impact on sales. -- audiofi
