For the Canadians thinking on the 7125/970 combo, full cost to Kelowna, BC:

combo + delivery + 7 interconnects - $2,150 Cdn
GST/PST/Brokerage on 7125 - $225 Cdn
GST/PST/Brokerage on 970 + 7 interconnects ~ $175 Cdn (estimate - not yet received)

Total - $2,550 Cdn

Ordered / Invoiced on april 19, 2006. Amp shipped from California and received April 27th. 970 and cables shipped from Massachussets and will probably be received within the next couple of days (In customs right now at closest border crossing).

with the current exchange rate , its making more sence for canadians to shop south of the border, the 5 year warrenty on the 7125 and 990 also apply to us canadians
i saved alot of money buying the 990 from outlaw instead of the sherwood newcastle from a local dealer, around $600 after expenses

Update for batchelor - actual GST/PST/Brokerage on 970 + interconnects was $225.

Total including all taxes for 970 / 7125 / and 7 interconnects was $2,600 CDN.

Thanks for the information. Have you been happy with this combo? I am debating this combo or the 990/7125 combo for some of the added features but not sure I would need or benefit from all of them. I appreciate the responses from everyone here!!
