$36 ????

What the heck?

One size fits all (apparently)

"They are great for PA systems, studio monitor applications, professional karaoke machines, as home audio bookshelf speakers or as an addition to your surround sound home theater."

If every one had a pair of these would any of us need things like EQ correction?

We could all just use the same speakers and get back to dancing.

I would still want EQ correction.

That way my mixes would surely stand out from the rest, no?

The "youth" in my hood usually have more than that stuffed into the trunk of a small import car. You can easily tell because said cars often have a 3 foot wing on the trunk lid.

It gives them that extra zoom zoom factor...

Kewl, thanks for the heads up Mike I want me some of them ones.

1000 Watts?  They must be good 'uns if they go that high.

The plastic metalwork is really stylish too.

Would these be any good for impressing clients?
 
 
You'll have to define 'clients' in this context before I can give you a definitive answer.

I need to get me some more watts.

I don't have nearly enough.

These are no slouches they are certified for proper Pro DJ use.

The best part about a Piezo tweeter is that you don't have to use a Crossover.

And they blow somewhat like light bulbs after a certain amount of use...

You can tell when you've lost one though because you lose that layer of tinny bass guitar sound.

I love me some piezo's whether they be round or trumpet shape they're all the same to me.

I wonder if that's because they are all the same....hmmm
