    I see alot of people in Chicago get ripped off by them. I'll browse the local CL for some goodies, and see these "professional, audiofile" speakers posted......and yes it was audiophile spelled with an "f" LOL

    They're called "audiofile" because when you listen to them it feels like a rough grade metal file being dragged across your eardrums.

    I think its great that they sell those. There motto should be "we keeps stupid people happy" ,or "If you are dumb enough to buy them you deserve them".
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben
