petetherock Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 I have been monitoring the high-def scene, hoping the wars will end soon so I can buy a new high-def player.... Anyway, I am planning a study trip to USA and stopping by HKG on the way. With a budget of 3-5k for HT related items, eg source, speakers etc (except sub), discs etc. Been planning my HT / music setup for a while. Can I ask anyone here to recommend hi fi items to buy? And the places to get them as well. Will be in both the Eastern and Western seaboard and I have a friend in Seattle to deposit my stuff. Cheers P PS: just ordered some Belkin power conditioners off Amazon for a start

petetherock Posted March 29, 2007 Author Posted March 29, 2007 Thanks! foxtail also sent me some info, I love the amp prices, and am very tempted, but shipping is an issue, since I am going on to USA. Am eyeing a Nikon SLR as well, but lingo might be an issue. Where another land of shopping awaits.... I am looking towards the HD scene, but it still seems too early to jump on board Appreciate all advice on HKG & USA.

???? Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 They speak this crazy new 'E N G L I S H' language thing over there now and everything... apparently that way the white colored creatures don't have to shout or use their hands alot.
petetherock Posted March 30, 2007 Author Posted March 30, 2007 Thank you for your witty reply I actually reckon it is useful to understand and speak their language. I have friends who get a better price as Cantonese speakers. Anyway, if anyone is up and about in HKG in early May, we can catch up for a cuppa. Cheers P
