We had a World Sound & Vision in the mall where I live too. I never found shopping there to be a very pleasent experience. The motto of this store seemed to be salemanship through pushyness. Seriously they must have had very strict quotas or something. Every week there were turnovers with the staff (or at least every time I went in there). They were the local seller of Nuance speakers, and that was the only brand of speakers that they carried. But they did carry a selection of receivers that our local big chain stores didn't. Not too long ago there was a post on this site that linked to information about Nuance and the trouble they are in legally, or were in any event. I almost bought a Nuance HT system from this shopbecause of the markdown. Some of you may have heard the pitch or a similar one. Retails for $8000 but for today only, and for the next 10 minutes only, I can sell it to you for $1300. Too good to be true so I walked away, and kicked myself for a long time about it. Then the shop left the mall with no notice, just there one day, gone the next. No closing sale, no notice to customers, no explanation.
I don't know about I-Kon speakers, but I would not but anything from World sound & Vision that was worth more, or could have more go wrong with it, than say a cable. That plus the word Kon in the name of a product? I can't bash this company because I've never heard their product, but a 12" sub that only goes down to 34 hz for that kind of scratch? Come on, somethings not right. I bet that if someone did some digging they would find a link between Nuance and I-Kon. By the way Nuance was famous for having sales staff post repeatedly on various sites and attacking anyone who said that their products were not what they claimed. That and for pushy salesmanship. I'm not saying that that is the case here, I'm just warning.
