PSB speakers show up on Crutchfield Website

[pvsat]

Another big speaker company is bowing down to the pressure from the industry I guess and joining the ranks of klipsch, polk, JBL etc. Not sure if they will show up in best buy or Frys...in any case will all the people in the audiophile segment start to call them cheap speakers and not audiophile anymore...only time will tell.

Recession is a great leveller..audiophile or not

I don't know the implication behind Crutchfield. Please explain. From a Canadian persepctive, I thought things were doing well. I may visit my delaer tomorrow and have small chat to see whats going on. As long as that ugly compant called Kliptsch doesn't buy them and ruin them with their idea of what good sound is I'll be happy. I have alot of respect for Paul Barton, his products, and their service as a whole.

Crutchfield at the moment are carrying the Image, Imagine, Synchrony Two and One along with 2 subs the HD8 and HD10. I doubt that being involved with Crutchfield will diminish their quality.

I was not implying that it is bad in anyways...just wanted to know how the people will react. I have purchased from Crutchfield and they reputable like amazon...but they are mainstream website and not an audio specialist website. So just felt that niche speaker manufacturers will soon have to follow suit if they want to keep in this highly competitive market.

I mentioned that they were carrying PSB like 2 months ago. B&W is being carried at Best Buy. Does that mean they are bowing to something? NO. It is called business.

This isn't the case with Crutchfield's in Canada...although from what I've seen they'll toll the company line for the most part, hence the reason why mfg's like to use them.
