We have just received news of special factory discounts from

two of our most popular brands

 

from Escient

jaw-dropping deals on the Fireball servers

 

 

If you've been in our shop, you probably know how much we love our FireBall!  We think it's amazing.  The Escient FireBall MX-111 has been selling well at its regular price of $1999.  While supply lasts, you can pick up one of these very cool music servers for only $899.  That's less than half price!  Crazy!

These are brand-new units with full factory warranty.  You really can't go wrong with this one.  It holds over 450 hours of CD quality music (about 5,000 music tracks).  This sweetheart records your CDs or computer based music, categorizes each recording into its proper genre and lists it alphabetically by artist within the genre group.  You can play any CD, random tracks within any genre or create as many playlists as you want.  It's all so easy that a "caveman could do it."

There are only a limited number of these units available at this price.

Escient has also authorized a similar price reduction on:

  • SE80 FireBall (was $999, now $599)

  • FP1 iPod Manager (was $699, now $499)

  • ZP1 Zone Player (was $499, now $349),

  • incredible deal on the combination MX531 (server for music & movies) and Sony's 400-disc DVD changer (this combo was $5800, now $2999)

 

 Call and order now while supplies last!

From cary Audio

unheard of factory authorized discounts on

the stunning cinema 11a and model 7.125 power amplifier

 

 

Cinema 11a
AUDIO PROCESSOR

The Cinema 11a is the ultimate in home theater audio processors. Utilizing the Cirrus Logic CS49700 series chipset and HDMI v1.3, the Cinema 11a has the ability to properly decode and playback both the raw bitstream and lossless linear PCM signals from the latest high resolution formats, including Dolby True HD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, and DTS-HD Master Audio. The Cinema 11a has the ability to set separate Listener Profile speaker settings for playback of Music and Movies. The Cinema 11a uses the best available components in the audio circuit, resulting in extraordinary sound quality, which is a trademark of Cary Audio Design products. The Cinema 11a contains an HD radio tuner for the highest resolution signals from FM broadcasts. Without question, the Cinema 11a is the highest performing home theater processor available today.

It offers 10 sets of inputs on the rear panel. Input number One is either a balanced digital input or an analog XLR stereo input pair. These balanced inputs can be set to BYPASS for pure stereo reproduction or they can be set to process the incoming signal for surround sound playback. Inputs number Two through Eight are either Toslink digital, coaxial digital or RCA stereo analog inputs. Inputs Nine and Ten are HDMI.
 


The Cinema 11a has remote turn-on triggers for power amplifiers or other devices. It features IR and RS 232 port inputs, and discrete command codes for infra red or RS 232 controls. The second zone outputs and the 7.1 RCA analog outputs are highlighted by a white surrounding to clearly distinguish them from the RCA inputs. Second zone operation offers a digital output and an RCA stereo analog pair of outputs. The Cinema 11a has 1 HDMI output.

Sound decoding modes offered are Dolby True HD, Dolby Digital Plus, DHTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, Dolby Digital EX, DTS ES, Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS NEO 96/24 and the music modes from both Dolby and DTS.

The front panel has a headphone jack for private listening that offers the Dolby Headphone circuit for private playback of your favorite movies or music in surround sound. All set up functions are shown in the front panel display to make set up without an external video display easy.

The clean industrial design harmonizes will with any of our award winning DVD players and power amplifiers.

 

Model 7.125
POWER AMPLIFIER

The Model 7.125 is an awesome seven-channel power amplifier rated at 125 watts per channel into an 8 ohm load and 190 watts per channel into a 4 ohm load. The rear panel has XLR and RCA inputs and a remote turn on trigger. With its power output it is capable of driving most multi-channel speaker systems. Quiet, low distortion operation with unmatched reliability.

Consignment

How It Works

At consignment businesses, consignment fees typically run as high as 50% and 60%.  But we've kept ours at 40% for years. 

CONSIGNMENT OPTION 1

Full-service consignment, which means we display, advertise, present and demonstrate your gear, just as we do our own new gear.  We handle any customer inquiries (send them pictures, specs and other relevant information) and find a buyer; we process the payment and deliver the gear to the buyer; we handle after-purchase questions and issues and mail you a check for the net proceeds from the sale.  For full-service consignment, Consignment Option 1, the fee is 40%. 

CONSIGNMENT OPTION 2

Consignment Level 2 is the same as Level 1, but you keep the gear until it’s sold.  We advertise and promote your gear, handle customer inquiries (send them pictures, specs and other relevant information), find a buyer and handle the sale.  But once it’s sold, you deliver the item to the buyer yourself.  We send you a check for your net proceeds from the sale.  For Consignment Option 2, the fee is 25%.

Increase Your Proceeds by 10%:  This is simple.  If you leave your proceeds from the sale on account with us to apply to your own product purchases here at Sweet Home Audio, we reduce our consignment fee by 10%.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  When we sell a used item, we do our very best to represent the product exactly as it is.  This is very important!  One of our most critical operating principles is that "we deliver what we promise."  This is not just a slogan for us but the way we actually operate.  When we have the used item here in our store, we can verify the operational status and physical condition of the products.  When we don't, we try to get pictures and other information about the items so that we gain confidence that the product is as stated.  In these cases, we also delay payment until the buying customer has received the item and verified that it truly is as promised. 

Existing agreements:  Needless to say (but here it is anyway!), all current consignments that we now have will continue under whatever agreement was made at the time of the consignment.  The above Consignment Levels apply to all new consignments.  Of course, our policy to deliver what we promise applies to everything we do. 

To the very many of you who place your used AV gear with us to sell and to the very many of you who look to us for quality used AV products, we give you a very hearty THANK YOU!

Now it is easier than ever to turn your old gear into cash!  Call (727) 446-2505 today!
