These are the next step up from the ADA880's we were hoping to get for free.. oh well, sometimes ya gotta pay to play.

Anyway,, I read several reviews on these and they are some super killer speakers according to what I've read.

Doc, I hate to be one of those folks who appear to be clueless about the Dell website, but I am, even after following the detailed advice on the dual 20Gb hard drive deal. I get as far as creating an account and putting in my shipping info. Then I get a blank page. Just sits there. Does Dell hate me? Do I need to go back and start from scratch?

Tomteriffic · 01-06-2002, 04:07 PM

Dang! I REALLY want these speakers. I've heard them and they sound great. Only reason I haven't gotten them Or the 880's) before was that the shipping was murder from other places.

Have ya tried deleting your cookies then going back.

Add the speakers to your cart, click the link that says add coupon, then paste the $25 coupon Code.

Then click compute shipping and handling.

Then check-out.

Their servers may be a bit busy, they get this way at times, I've had to wait till the wee morning hours on some days the HOT deals were pouring out so fast.

We'll give it another try

If you keep getting problems creating a new account, call them.

It's not bad calling Dell, I've done it several times, just try to do it very early in the am hours.

Tomteriffic · 01-06-2002, 08:27 PM

Dr. Richard Corvette Cranium, you iz a wiz, and many thanks for the coupon code and heads-up on this one

Worked just fine this time, although I had to go thru the final step about four times before the server caught it.

Again, many thanks from Doc Radar to Dr. Vette

do u know if these are in a retail box?

Tomteriffic · 01-06-2002, 09:31 PM

My guess would be an OEM box as Dell got these for resale with their systems.

BURNin'HELL · 01-08-2002, 12:22 AM

i guess that's ok.... as long as nothing is missing... remote, etc...

and its not refurbished.... it would say wouldn't it?
