Hi Dnj,
As you say, it's probably a good idea to at least check 'em out I suppose but I'm a bit afraid I might like 'em.

Hi Gary,
Your suggestion is duly noted and the idea of pre-recording a few songs and taking a walk around is a good one. But the Price!
They also want over $4,000AU for the L1 with no discounts allowed.

Hi Diki,
In Australia we pay a flat 10% GST (Goods & services tax) on pretty much everything with no additional state taxes, so the price isn't justified due to taxation it's more like greed.

Hi cassp,
It is a lot of money; I would be a buyer at even $1,250AU for the L1 compacts but not $1,700. I think Bose are being too greedy for their own good.

Thanks everyone,
Newman
