This auction stinks! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3048325336&category=14993

No pictures of the speakers themselves, just catalog shots. Then, he says they have 60" ribbons when the Amazings have two 30" ribbons. He then says they weigh 115lbs. boxed.....the speakers themselves are 112lbs. I know the carton weighs more then 3lbs. Stay away from this one!!!

    Looks like I wasn't the only one who thought something was fishy. He changed the ribbon description and has photos of the real thing, thanks Mike.

    Frank, you buying?

    You know, the black does grow on you. I would have liked the oak finish but now that I'm used to it, I really like the black.

    Jeeze Frank......c'mon by but if you are driving anything other than a subcompact, no dice. :D

    Besides, Tour has got what I got, only MORE. Maggies, SRS's more Sunfire than most dealers yada yada yada.....

    The only thing that I would change on my CA's is the color of the ribbon. I'd prefer the silver over the gold but yes, I know prefer the black over the oak finish.

    Bring on the Yugo.

    Well, you might make it out the door with my B&W 601's, maybe a pair of LSi's but the RTA's, DQ-10's or the CA's, not happening. Besides, once I got my helmet on, I could run your **** down on foot.
