I love how the frequency goes from 70Khz to 20Khz.. so are you saying that there is no Bass and is only extremely high pitched? and if the K in the 70Khz is a typo.. then the subs only go down to 70Hz anyway?!?! gotta love incompetant scammers.

    Maybe its no scam and they are the true specs. HT for the dogs I say.

    I also like the sensitivity of 93dB±3dB. Lets see, 3dB is a doubling of the sound pressure level and if we assume the worst case, the sensitivity could deviate by 6dB. Wow!

    Do you hear that buzzing noise? :confused:

    At the Olin Ross website it says "Model number and manufacturer's suggested prices are for identification purpose only. Manufacturer's suggested price do not represent a bona fide selling price in the metro trading area"

    I honestly was approached one day as I was leaving a Texas road house, asking is I wanted some really nice speakers for cheap. I said let me see them it was a small box with the sub and all. I laughed at them as they gave me there pitch. Even after I told them I would only give them 80 bucks "all I had" for them they still were trying to get more. I told them to get some real speakers and come see me again.

    You guys, this is the internet. You aren't allowed to put lies on the internet. They must be awesome speakers, especially if they cost that much, and he's right if IMAX uses them, those places are huge.

    Since I can't afford such awesome speakers, I'll just go now and do the next best thing. Gonna go apply aluminum foil to all my speakers, be back in a few hours.
