I have to agree that these are in the top 5 of the most ugly boxes I've seen.  Wouldn't care how they sounded; they would not go anywhere near my listening room.  Maybe the garage, but I understand they need half a dozen additional woofers to go along with them to make them listenable.

Regarding Prelude's post on the red ones, that looks like it a cross between a chrome plated piggie bank and an industrial vacume cleaner with marital aids stuck all over it.

Look what they did to Sunfire once Bob sold the company.
Like moving production to China wasn't insulting enough...
I think that the weird aluminum strips open up to expose more controls.  Maybe the Hari Kari discombobulator circuit resides there, who knows.



Uncle Festermo, good one! :lol:

Peter J,
You'd have to ask poor Joe from Frank Zappa's Joe's Garage. 
If memory serves me right he shorted his copy out...

The early Hsu subwoofers weren't the cutest:




Maybe if they had come in a nice floral print the WAF would have been a bit higher.

Hi Steve and all Audio Circle members.
