The price was about the same as the 396, I can't see why anyone would want a 296 over the 396. I have both.

The 296 was discontinued when the 396 started shipping. Similarly, the BC796D is now discontinued.

Are you trying to say that the 996 has started shipping???

Actually, I said that a week or so ago in another thread. The first shipments of BCD996T's arrived in LA on 5/15 and are en route to our Fort Worth facilities, now. ETA is very, very soon.
