Please understand that my intent in posting the above response was purely informational. I am in no way commenting on whether anyone should or should not buy from BargainBrands. They have some great deals on MA's, and I am considering buying from them. IMO, if the price is right, there is litlle to go wrong with speakers unless they are truly broken and therefor a warranty might not be as critical as with a more complicated component such as a AVR.
