Make that two zeros in many cases!!  

That's why almost all of my gear is purchased direct from "small" vendors or used off of Audiogon or here.

Hey, guys, don't add on the extra zero until I get my new speakers!

BTW, what is the warranty on VMPS speakers?

Factory assembled is 5yrs parts and labor.

Kits are two years parts only.

I suggest a compromise. Let's add a zero to the model number instead of the price. RM400 sounds more impressive than an RM40!

Wilsons are ridiculously over priced.  However, I like quite a few of the Wilson speakers and probably would have some (used) Watt Puppies if I didn't order VMPS.
