Anybody see anything particularly wrong with this speaker?

    Uh.. well... Is it a ribbon tweet or a dome? Looks like a dome tweeter, covered by the frame from a planar tweeter. Perhaps they think it will function as some sort of horn :p What exactly are we looking at?

    That "ribbon" tweeter is nothing more than the plastic grille with a regular polymer dome tweeter behind it.

    Somebody got snowed pretty good. If I walked into a friend's house and saw something like that in the living room, I'd probably walk out and tell him to lose my number.

    Here you go, here is the website for them:

    http://www.ibizcarts.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=TR-2800&Category_Code=ht_loud&Store_Code=thr

    and here is the home page for that site.

    http://www.trtheaterresearch.com/

    It's a total scam! They pass out these flyers and they reference this site with these exhorbitant prices for total junk, knock-off or even doctored equipment from other brands. I guess thier is thier bait to make people think the story is for real!

    Look at the prices! Most of the "Professional" stuff is JBL EON knock-offs and I swear I am seeing Polk Audio and Definitive Technologies clones in the Home Theater sections. The best part is the prices!

    Anyone notice the TV they have for sale? lol like 3 grand for a flat screen tv, just flat screen you can get a flat pannel tv for 3 grand, and they don't even tell you the size of the TV on the site, that's got proffessionalism written all over it

    Everything is on "Special" too! What a deal! :rolleyes:
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    I'm betting that teh website is a sham. These particular guys hand out flyers with a website address on them. They must put pictures of teh junk they sell up to make it more believable to putzes who buy this crap thinking they got one hell of a smokin' deal.
