Way to go George. You'll have a winning line, that's for sure Let me know if it happens and you can use me as a reference.

i am glad that someone has spotted an opportunity and not closed their minds as well as their ears. I hope you sell a boat load George.

No thanks..Been there done that...got the cap....Thats why we bought the Bose. Its handles everything, No need for multiple systems or monitors. Bigger rooms provide their own systems.

I have never been a follower, and being wrong on this does not cost me a dime. so what's your point

Enjoy them. Buy a ton of them. I'll stick with what I know. You guy rapping about me working in a music store go right ahead. Im here by choice, not necessity. Not to mention purchasing anything for 10% below Dealer cost. I am sure there are planty of people who would suffer a few hours a day listening to chopsticks and drop D chords to buy a Tyros 3 and a Motif XS8 and practically get a Bose Mod II system "free" with the savings. Working for a dealer has it's benefits that go far beyond a paycheck.
A new T4 for the price of a used T3....OK.

And as Long as I am there I can buy the new models for the same price I can get for the used ones.(and medical benefits ) for 4 hours a day a few days a week. Yeah throw me in THAT "brier patch"....


We are not a GC. And no we won't carry the Synthzone "Speakers of the Year" but I will send customers here to read your glowing reviews and as usual let them decide for themselves whether to buy them WITHOUT HEARING THEM like all of you who did buy them.

I am a firm believe in "you get what you pay for". I have yet to see enough evidence to the contrary to change that mindset, especially when in the public eye and on their dime.

No but its seems you got the last five sets....how coincidental?

I judge the merits of things based on market REPUTATION and longevity when I do not have direct access."Frankly" (no pun intended) I don't see the issue with that.

Not that there is anything wrong with it but Yes the general air around here seems to be restaurants, nursing homes (I would love to volunteer playing at one someday), weddings (shoot me first), and generally lower energy events for the OMB players.

Maybe some are playing local high energy dance clubs who knows. But I have more a sense of "Just the Way you Are" over "Big Shot" on a playlist. I could be wrong. You may all be rocking out playing screaming right hand distorted guitar leads followed by the Cupid Shuffle and Cha Cha Slide....who knows.

Try the new JBL Eon subs, or the PRX-series. Very good sound and low weight + Crown amps!

I actually stopped reading this thread last week, it not being applicable to my needs or further interest, but was PM'd regarding your question so I thought I answered it.Then came the sarcasm directed my way LOL.

People wonder how I can pass judgment without hearing them yet five (more or less) bought them without hearing them. I find that more far more inordinate and a cause for wonder, especially dealing with audio gear from an Ebay vendor. Then with a few buyers they are suddenly sold out.I would never buy untested audio gear from any store without hearing it based on a questionable incomplete spec sheet That's just me. Nor would I chastise someone who thought they should listen before buying anything.

David Foster and Michael Omartian and many other major producers use different gear and I would suspect none of them would use gear they have not heard purely based on each other's opinion.

Here's another way to look at it. The majority of people on this board have way more discretionary income than the average poor struggling musician. If you look at who bought these speakers (most of whom didn't even have a pressing need for them), for most of them, $200 bucks is 'chump change'. All of us know that Fran's been around the music business long enough to know whether a pair of speakers are pure junk or not. Let's face it; at that price they only need to be 'not terrible' to be justifiable.

Nobody was pressured to buy them. Fran bought them on a gamble, was pleasantly surprised by the build-quality and sound, and decided to pass the information on. The rest of us looked at Fran's review, the weight, the price, and how they would fit our individual needs (back-ups, stage monitors, studio monitors, small-room gigs, augmentation for existing setups, etc.) and decided that this purchase was a prudent risk. I don't think that makes us idiots, as some would have us believe. IT'S MY MONEY, AND I WANT (to spend) IT NOW!
