How about the Tyke 5.1 system . . .regularly $399 . . .now only $319 AND since you're seeing this at AC, you'll also get a mail in rebate for an additional $20! Available in both blackand silver. To get the special rebate you must insert Coupon Code AC1214 in the comments section of the shopping cart or tell us on the phone when you order.

Happy Holidays!

I know I'm just over looking it somewhere on the ACI site
but what are the TYKES...where is it listed?
I assume this is similar to your ELT or a MINI HTIB

Thanks

See http://www.audioc.com/elt/tyke.htm

Mike, that is kind of hard to find. I went through the ELT 5.1 page.

You're right. We'll get the Tykes added to the drop down box today, thanks!

Are these babies shielded? And, will you seel the satellites separately?

Harry

The sats and center are completely shielded, sub is not. The sats and center MUST be used with a 100Hz or higher feed from the source, warranty is void if they're used full range. They're gutsy little Tykes, but they are tykes

Now I understand . . .

Mike,

What's the efficiency/power handling capacity of the Tykes?

Do you have a patent on speaker names?

Could they come in white/aluminum? (You know that you're treading on lifestyle grounds here.)

The system looks like it'd blow away an $800 B*se system with separate tweeter and neodymium magnets, and for half the price!

Just back from the evening's concert and I'm rather tired. Will look up the #s tomorrow. White isn't currently planned, but silver is pretty cool. Very good sound AND look at this price point.

JLM:

I did a quick measurement today and would say the sensitivity of the Tyke satellites is right around 88-89db. They MUST be used as small, with the reciever crossover set at 100hz or higher. (They don't have light bulbs inside to protect them

They'll play pretty loud for their size. No problem using them with 60-100 watt/channel rec as long as set to small, 100Hz or above and don't try to get too crazy, they are tiny but talented
