    It screams *White Van* :D

    Garage tower, anyone?
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    WOW, what a way to make money...

    Create a website selling stuff for alot of $$$...

    then create Ebay auctions for a fraction of that price so people think they're getting a good deal...

    Or am I totally off base and these are bad **** speakers??? I doubt I'm off-base...

    Pure junk, steer clear.
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    I actually had someone try to sell me those once out of a WHITE van in a Home Depot parking lot. Needless to say, I wasn't very interested...:)

    There was actually a hifi store in Orange County, CA that had these speakers. They don't look bad in-person, and they sounded ok, but the tweeters were extremely bright. I saw them there about one year ago. The salesman tried to tell me that they are better than JBL, Polk and Bose. I replied to him that just about everything is better than Bose, and I had to respectfully disagree with him regarding the those speakers sounded better than Polk and JBL.
