TB Santa Cruz....$41.80....Yipppeeeeee...***DEAD***

I worship at the altar of Santa Cruz and many others do as well. If you already have an Audigy, it's probably not worth spending more money on TBSC, but if you have SB Live! or something crappier I think you'll find the improvement Santa Cruz gives you is literally night and day in terms of...

Super flaming hot!!! Maxtor 40GB 7200rpm HD for $9.99 AR @OfficeDepot - DEAD DEAL

I went to the Office Depot in Dublin, CA, and the manager was a total harda*s and he wouldn't let me use the $20 off $75 coupon code, period. He told me it was "online only" and other BS. So I asked him if I could use a computer in the store (!!) and he let me so I found a truly printable $10...

You would be wise to stay FAR FAR away from OCsystem.com, I've heard horror stories about that site that would make your hair curl. Stay away from shady fly-by-night website prices that are too good to be true if you know what's good for you. If you thought OCZ was bad, they got nothing on...

Samsung PC2700 256MB for $64 or 512MB for $116 shipped

NewEgg has been shipping the DTL sticks too for some time. Their site still lies and says it's CTL but it's not, I received a stick and it was DTL.

Samsung 512mb DDR PC2700 $138 plus shipping.

Yes, there is a Samsung part number on a label that is attached to the memory. But obviously that's not proof of anything, someone could have ripped the sticker off a real Samsung module and stuck it to mine. I'm calling NewEgg and demanding they exchange this module or refund my cash.

Samsung 512mb DDR PC2700 $138 plus shipping.

I just received a stick of 512MB Samsung "Original" from NewEgg and it does NOT have Samsung written, burned, or otherwise put on the PCB. Did I get Samsung "Original"? Or did NewEgg just rape me for $149 + shipping for generic crap with 3rd party PCB?!?!

Good deal on Satanic Bible, $3.46

This statement assumes that the Bible is authentic. The Satanic Bible isn't even really a "bible", it's more like a treatise of Anton LaVey's philosophical and religious principles...think of it more as a "Satanist's Manifesto"

Bose Quality Speakers for cheap

I'm still trying to figure out how the hell this thread relates to Hot Deals. Guys, you want to flame each other about loudspeaker quality, you'd best hit a place like avsforum.com, you can discuss speakers until you're blue in the face. This forum is for hot deals, not audiophile flamewars.

WARM: Turtle Beach Santa Cruz from Dell for $59 shipped

In general, the TBSC produces much cleaner output than the SB Audigy. It beats the living hell out of that hissy noisy piece of crap called SBLive! The TBSC is often mentioned in audiophile circles as "pseudo-audiphile sound" because it's still a mass-market consumer level soundcard (unlike the...

Monsoon MH-505's Hot!!!

The MH-505's have better balance and a more natural response, but the Z-560's can blow out windows if you want them to, plus the bass is unreal if you crank it up. We're talking floor vibrations, wall vibrations, windows rattling, the whole nine yards! ;) If you are a true audiophile, get the...

If you want a Ti4600 early, barring cost... (not a hot deal - just FYI)

Well donations to charities are indeed tax deductible, but you have to owe taxes to get it deducted. If you feel confident that you will owe more than the cost of that auction in taxes (and most people will :) ), then you can buy the card and then claim it as a tax writeoff. I'm not sure about...

Logitech Z560s - $128.92 + shipping

I ended ordering them from Provantage even though the shipping was $37.95 to California. Better to pay a bit more from a big trustworthy company IMHO, especially if there is some problem with them I need to return or exchange them...it costed me $166 total, not bad.

manly: The hiss from your Z-560s are likely to be caused by your Live!, which is known to be a noisy hissy soundcard. To call Live! a crap would be an understatement, but if you want to hear how your Z-560s ought to sound, your next step should be run (or click?) to the nearest retailer, online...
