This is the type of deal that you'll want to jump on. Not only is the price cheap, but the component is very cool. The SC-1223-K offers 120 watts (@ 8 ohms, 1kHz) to each of its channels.

When ordering this receiver, make sure you buy from Amazon -- and not one of the retailer's third-party merchants. This is one of Amazon's Gold Box Deals, so they are offering the discount, as well as the free shipping. Because it's a Gold Box Deal, it also means that this discount is limited! The price will expire at midnight tonight (PT) or whenever the retailer runs out of stock.
