someone buy these so i stop lusting after them; do not need more speakers....

If someone gets these and isn't comfortable refoaming, hit me up.

I too need more speakers like a hole in my damn head.

nope, not going to do it. Just jettisoned my old pair of BW 220s........

A bit pricey, I'd opine -- but they are nice little loudspeakers. Sort of neither fish nor fowl, though -- the smaller, cheaper AR-18 was probably the better buy when they were new.

AR-18 in a bigger cab so better bass. good thread here from RS Steve:
