    LOL.....I had to read Tony's post twice to try and figure out why a guy here would be asking about a Gilmore Girl. I wasn't aware that shows on the WB were up for discussion here.......... :p

    Here is a lengthy discussion on Gilmore speakers,
    http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?cspkr&1066460204&read&keyw&zzgilmore

    This statement contains parts borrowed from another..... There is as much plastic in the girl as those kitchen counter tops.

    Someone else figured out that Gilmore has maybe $3000.00 a pair into the ribbons/drivers and kitchen counter tops. You will notice the lack of crossovers in the pictures, so perhaps that is where the other $14,000.00 comes in. Can you say rip-off? I thought so!

    And finally, not only are those speakers ugly, but that woman isn't much to look at either, maybe some of you need better monitors.

    The Gilmore girl does nothing for me, she wouldn't make it past my front door. The Olsen twins.......now we're talking! I quess my standards are a little higher than yours or perhaps the fact that I don't drink isn't clouding my vision! ;)

    Now, please remove that last pic, cause I don't want it damaging my monitor.

    That pic in spastic's post looks like Britney Spears without her makeup.

    The pics of Linda O'Neil in the Gilmore ad are not very flattering. The pics on her website are much better. I certainly wouldn't refuse her entry into or kick her out of my bed. Facially, she is sort of plain, as are most models. Most photographers prefer a "neutral" facial palatte.

    Contrary to potential opinions to the opposite, I can gauge a womans beauty, or lack thereof....;) She is NOT that good looking, and I'll have to agree with F1 on that. Oh, and the Olsen Twins......I think that they turn 18 this year.....June comes to mind, but I know that they're not 18........yet.

    Personally, I have to question any product that relies so heavily on tightly clad models to push it. Of course it draws attention, but if the product can't stand on it's own, then I have to wonder......

    The Gilmore Girl has nice shoes, and that's about it. As for Gilmore himself.......... when his mom drives him to church on Sundays, I'll bet he rides with his head out the window.

    She IS built like a brick shithouse, even if it is silicone. I think all we could do is look at pictures, 'cause you ain't touchin' dat without a bank account with at least 7 figures in the balance.
