Why do I have a feeling that this will end somewhere down in the basement along with the shag carpet and the wood-lined wall. Those that will buy it will be wondering in 2-years time, what were they thinking.

Doesn't Apple have a patent on selling already-obsolete hardware that can't be upgraded for way too much money to an unsuspecting and easily deceived public?

It all depends on the quality of the speakers. There are speaker systems out there that are definitely worth this much and more.

That having been said, this certainly doesn't look like the kind of product that would have truly high quality speakers included. Maybe I'm wrong, but I would guess that this thing doesn't sound anywhere NEAR as good as other speakers you could get for that price.

If this had blu-ray and I had the option to not see the speakers(by way of a speaker cover) I'd consider it for those who aren't a/v inclined.

Good concept, poor value at that price (assuming the speakers are inferior). Also: definitely needs to have blu-ray.

Not even worth a second look without bluray.
Not something anyone who reads Tom's would want anyways. We like customization.

It all depends on quality... I spent nearly that much on an unpowered center channel speaker. The enclosure looks a bit busy for me (speakers should be grilled, electronics covered imo) but it COULD be worth the money depending on components.
