"I think we have to check the floor bracing in the living room!"

Wow.. what a mess that would be. Imagine trying to sneak those past the ole lady?:D

You know what's funny? From the pics, you'd think these things chew up space like a Pipedream, IRS, or some other monolithic monster that towers above the room. Instead, they have tiny 5" drivers, have an fr of 60hz-20khz, and stand only 3' tall.

Why would you want these things?

Why would you want these things?

So when you have company they can ask, "What the h.ll is that?!"

Still time left if you'd like to bid.

80Db sensitivity??? you better have a couple of thousand watts if you wanna listen to any hard rock with these things.
visit-impressing aside, i don't understand why anyone would want these. And i definately don't understand why anyone would pay FOUR THOUSAND bucks for them. but to each his own.
cheers!
