    the one R15 has a dented cone.

    The ebay'er says, however:

    Dent in cone does not effect speaker performance in any way.

    Uhm .....

    "Nice speaker terminals will except monster cable!"

    Well sometimes minor dents, I can't hear any difference. there was a small dimple in a micro utopia by Jm labs and no one could tell .

    but I have some cherry r15's that I'm using for computer speakers, I got them through the Fry's. Do they not put cherry r15's up? I've noticed a lot of blacks.

    A minor dent in the dust caps is usually OK. This is a HUGE dent on the tweeter dome and that's BAD BAD BAD. Listing them as "EXLT COND" is severely false advertising. But hey, the grills are in perfect condition :rolleyes: :p

    Fry's has R15 on sale at $40 per pair this weekend thru Tuesday!! They are likely black. These are brand new, not worth to risk the ebay pair just to save at most $10.

    Sorry guys

    I didn't notice the damaged tweeter when I posted this. I saw the "exlt condition" and a pic, which looked clean; I didn't scroll all the way down..

    Cherry just isn't as sexy as black speakers are. It's a known fact that black cars go faster than cherry cars so it must apply to speakers as well :D
