Bruce B Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Might be a good time to swoop in on a good tv deal for those looking. http://www.businessweek.com/ap/financialnews/D8O0SV100.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainmaykr Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 A company name change wouldn't hurt either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkz Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 I'm glad to see that there are no closings in Maryland. About 2 years ago, a coworker recommended this store, as he was very satisfied by a DirectTV installation they did. I was all set to have them do one on our rental house, and the Tweeter store manager suggested I hold off on DirectTV as the equipment was going to be obsolete (HD-Tivo) soon since the satellite signal was going to change. He gave me his card and told me to come back when things got sorted out. I was impressed that he never tried to sell me on anything else, just told me to save my money and come back later. Good customer service in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baiter Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Tweeter couldn't figure out if they wanted to compete w/ best buy and circuit city, or go high end and compete w/ the niche market. They ended up being somewhere in between which pretty much erased their customer base. The local high end shops have had private listening rooms (tweeters new "playground") for a long time. I went to http://www.overtureav.com/index.html about 10 years ago looking for a set of speakers in the $300-$500 range, and we were given a room to ourselves for at least 2 hours to just sit there and listen to music on any speakers we wanted. :slayer Try going into tweeter and getting a private room for hours on the potential of a $300 sale.

Bruce B Posted March 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 I went to one recently and it was kind of a joke. I was looking at the Denon 2807(before buying it at One Call). On it it said "regular price"$1099.00, "On Sale" $1098.00. I asked if it was a mistake or joke. It wasn't.:eh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't That's better than what a store I worked at did. They raised prices 20% and then said "10% off sale". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camp Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Tweeter sucks. I guess their TV selection is OK but the audio side of their inventory is shit. Blah brands and consistently out of stock on anything remotely decent. Pricing sucks too. Ultimate Electronics, while far from perfect, had done a better job of navigating the "not quite Best Buy but not quite your high end audiophile" segment.
