- Are you implying that my $475 a pair Snell KII's are not even semi good?

- I beg to differ. To say that you can't get a good pair of speakers for
- $700 is either snobbish and/or a sign of lack of knowledge of what good is.
- I have heard $100 speakers and $10000 speakers and I would have to disagree
- that good has anything whatsoever to do with price.
