    I'm waiting for the price to drop by 99%. When did glass become so expensive?

    So what happens if you're playing opera and it shatters your speakers?

    What I found funny was scrolling down under "what others have purchased after viewing this" was an $89 Polk sub!

    Some one was selling a pair of Waterfall for cheap on the Northern Virginia CL a few months back. (I think it was the much more reasonably priced Victoria speaker that are only $6000 retail.) Sure, it looked like somebody had bashed one in with a hammer, but I imagine that is really easy to fix.

    I'd imagine that the sub along with the the $10.49 spool of 16awg speaker wire to hook up to that HTIB receiver laying around these badboys would really shine while playing my mp3's!

    I believe our comments in no way are a knock a Polk subs. But someone who is willing to buy 50K speakers and go all out on a 90 sub, is our point.
