I almost bought this morning. If they hadn't sold out of the pewter finish, I might have. I stared at the "ridiculously large button" for a minute.

Need to dump my huge Cerwin Vegas. They have served me well for twenty years, but they are ugly!

Sold Out!

That was a good discount off their original price but still not a good deal IMO. With an F3 of 55Hz you would still need a subwoofer even for normal music listening, and only 42 lbs each for a 45" tall cabinet? Seems too light to be very solid.
Would much rather build my own but of course that's not an option for many people.
