Default Klipsch DMX-5.1

Does anyone know how to obtain this sweet speakersystem in Europe for a decent price?

At newegg.com it costs 207 euros (240$). The cheapest European price I can find is 500 euros... that's 150% more expensive!!

I think it will be a long time before we see high quality wireless speakers that run on batteries.

I found a US shop that only asks 200 euro and ships international. Only problem: UPS charges 240 euro's for delivery.

Indeed, total sum would be:
- 200 euro's for the speakers
- 30 euro's international wire transfer
- 50 euro's importtax
- 240 euro's UPS
=

So there is someone else searching for these beaties too.
at www.aed.be they distribute the Klipsch brand (as shown on www.klipsch.com ). I also asked them when these pieces of art would come available, and the answer was december. The price is still unknown...
