If you decide to buy speakers online, make sure you know the shipping (maybe taxes) and make sure they're the right ones. Make sure your credit/debit card or whatever you use has enough funds. You should make sure you have a good, secure internet connection, and make sure your internet bills and power bills are paid up. You should also make sure you don't have any spyware or viruses on your computer (AVG 8.0 Free Edition) and make sure you're nice and updated (Microsoft Update) and you've got Windows XP SP3 or Windows Vista SP1. Make sure you're not dehydrated and make sure you're in a good posture and lower your keyboard to help prevent carpotunnel syndrome. You can make a trip to the doctor and/or dentist to make sure there are no problems that could interfere with your online purchasing. Make sure your eyesight is good to correctly complete your order. Make sure you don't have any hazards like your stove, microwave, toaster, iron, coffee maker, ect. left on. Make sure there are no shorts in your power plugs. Check your weather and think about investing in a good UPS or surge protector for your equipment. You should make sure there are no water leaks that may interfere with your online order either. I think I've covered a few basics for online ordering. If you need any more advice, feel free to PM me or go ahead on posting.

So, how much are you going to front for the 92s?

Just wondering what your price point is.

oh, dont leave other windows open. might end up crashing on you, and you may end up getting a reciever without you knowing it.

keep the door open too. just in case.

Get rid of Norton. I don't want to go on a rant on Norton. Let's just say we haven't had a happy history. Get AVG Free. It's much less demanding on your CPU and is better at scanning, defending, and removing spyware and viruses. Absolutely use Firefox. It's what the pro's use. You should have something to eat or at least snack on to keep your mind sharp and focused for typing in what's necessary to order online with.

so weres the best website to purchase klipsch reference 62's online?

[mightymike]

Hello, tence.
I've bought two sets of Klipsch speakers at "sounddistributors.com". Price was great, shipping was quick and no hassles.
They say they are Klipsch authorized and the speakers come with the Klipsch stickers on the back and Klipsch accepted the warranty. So?

wow great for you my friend, but can you pay by money order?
what paying method did you decide to go with?

[jomari]

Tense,

you never answered the reciever inquiry? how much you getting the 92's?

[mightymike]

Tense.
Sorry I didn't respond sooner, I've been sick.
I used a credit card as I always do. Don't know if they accept money orders, why not?
I buy alot of stuff online with my internet use only credit card(small limit) have it delivered to the UPS drop or my American P.O.box then import it into Canada saving very substancial money on brokerage fees. Of course I can do this because I live buy the border.
