I don't think it's a bad price. If I were actively looking for that specific sub, it's not bad. If it were $500 it'd probably be in my living room by now... lol.

That's pretty gnarly. They do mention it might be more of a qc issue than design tho, which is in line with what I've read about the company. Some folks got legit good gear and a bunch got gear with cheaper parts or poor crossover work. It was super inconsistent.

afterlife2 Audioholic Warlord Jun 24, 2021 #2,210 Well Z, they came home with me yesterday. I already had a Jamo center speaker, so I said why not. I was afraid the tape was gonna ruin the finish, but I took it off gently and phew came out OK. The speakers were dirty as heck and I used Awesome cleaner and the dirt came off easily without ruining the finish. It's weird I'm getting all White electronics stuff lately. These are a Beauty in person. Some pics for Hungry eyes. I will hook them up later on tonight to see if I like em.

For $19 ... it should be one of the best under $50 deals ... if by chance you do not like them, then your should be able to sell them for around $40 or $50 Last edited: Jun 24, 2021

He bought the left over stock drivers from AV123 ... but the original AV123 ELT I believe, was designed by one of the Triangle speaker designers ... but before AV123 closed, Danny was designing some of their speakers which included a lower version of the ELT bookshelf speakers.
