okay, right, maybe you don't like us to say it, and obviously, you wouldn't believe us anyways, but still i'm going to say it, note that when you like them, they are good to you, but still, nuance is crap, pure garbage, they make money out of crappy speakers made for your $50 stereo 'system', but they are made nicer with the fake piano laquer on them, and after a little googling, you'll find various sites with other people saying that these 'speakers' are crap.

maybe this will clear things up:

they are made by some company making speakers for shops like wal-mart and stuff.

whatever you payed for them, 99% of it is pure profit.

and btw,
usually, people ask their opinions BEFORE they buy something, when they don't, well,
things like yours happen.
