thank you kind sir! much appreciated! Yeah i had never heard of this brand before either, speaker looks awfully nice, would be interesting to find out what it sounds like, but the no return policy is kind of off putting

The cat that makes these makes awsome tube amps!!! Tube Audio Designs (not to be confused with the Pioneer owned TAD - who also makes great Speakers). These TAD's I believe have no crossovers and they are designed that way. They receive mixed reviews - and I have heard they really need a lot of breaking in. The price is cheap though.

Read these. For $80, it doesn't look like much of a risk.

Looks like he's out of the tube business but he's doing solid state amps now - here's his web site http://www.angelfire.com/biz/bizzyb/products.html

He used to offer a matching bookshelf speaker that you can find on Agon every now and then.

Read the last post. If you're wanting to take a chance, hell go for it, but don't believe the reviews there. This is some guy's home-made speaker that copies the B&W's looks.

yeah i read that in the last few posts, figure that for $80 it might be worth a shot, it will just be for a small setup in the bedroom! if i get one i willdef have to post a review
