Default New speakers

That is seemingly a sales pitch you are loading onto this
group - are you the Stateside distributor for those over-priced
boxes?


Boonie probably obtained the speakers for review. If you google "Marc
Phillips vinyl" you'll see a selection of his so-called work.

You state "they go down to about 44hz at -6db" That is a
dramatic minus 6 decibels at a not very low 44hz that they roff
off at! So your subsequent claim "go just as deep in the bass"
cannot be true, it is just not possible with those specs!


That would be "fast bass" ;-)

If you are a genuine punter who fell for the sales pitch,
ahem, well... Corian is a product developed a long time
ago by DuPont, it is used for kitchens etc. For the price of those pair of
boxes I
could rig every kitchen counter in Corian in a couple
households for half the price of those boxes and still get change!


All good points.

So you bought into the sales pitch that as they
sandwiched Corian with MDF (Thats medium Density Fibre board) you fell for
it and paid the silly price for them? (This reminds me of the Neat
Petite nonsense but at least they were 20% of the cost -
but still crap small boxes) Elsewhere in this thread you
post that each box has been hand polished - one dosen't polish Corian,
just needs
occasional wipe with a damp cloth, just like a kitchen counter.
I've cross posted this to a UK group, so if anyone can be
arsed to reply, in other group though it's not as
knackered as this group there is a bloke there in
Scotland who can get frazzled about syntax/grammer etc.
So be careful. I've uploaded another clip, feel free to comment and be
as abusive as you wish - I love it.


Boonie no doubt obtained the speakers for review. Other than casual writing
for internet freebies, he seems to be pretty much living off the wife. He's
a well-known newgroup punter who recently got bounced from the staff of one
of the glossier internet freebies.

Please don't cross-post from RAO - it just brings in a lot of trash.
