Keeping Our White Van Credentials

Set of Pro Studio tower speakers - $100 (Rensselaer)

Excellent Set of speakers. Paid over $400 a year ago. First come first served. Cash only. I can deliver locally only.

It's kind of funny that when the woofers went that they replaced them with a different set of white van woofers. It does have a cool look with the side mounted woofers. NO AFFILIATION OF COURSE!

I like the warranty disclaimer. What warranty?

It would void the warranty for any audio equipment that had the misfortune of being coupled to those *cough* smoke releasers.

Actually Techwood is not "white van"-although it sure could be. This is the "brand" rented/sold at Rent-A-Center

I think I would have a hard time purchasing any speaker with the name 'Techwood'

Please tell me that is going to catch on as the new word to describe when someone gets really excited about some new tech item.

As in the new improved Techwood <product_type>? What can I say, I'm from Maine, and for me, that name evokes a new wood product

As in 'looking at that amp gives me techwood'

“This speaker is ‘accoustically’ matched to the audio system it is sold with. Do not use with any other system or the warranty will be void”. That’s quite the selling point.
And the dirt on that woofer after “one” year.

Sad to say... I know far too may people who would look at those speakers and think they were "awesome".

I've got the perfect amp for those.... Sonic Sounds amp powering Techwood speakers.
Not just any Sonic Sounds amp, but their high-line Xtra Pro model.

If Technics and Kenwood had a baby....that baby would be ugly according to this speaker.

The people I know the conversation would go like this:

"Nice speakers, how many watts are they?"
"200"
"Awesome!"

But the tag says only 150W... Bummer, dude.

Rent-a-center is pretty much a big white van up on cinder blocks.

Hey, any place that carries Techwood, Sonyo, Yamaneer and Denophase isn't white van!

 

[Putterman]

Actually, my bad. Browsing a few listings Tech(nics)(Ken)wood, it seems Rent-A-Center uses their 'high end' Pro Studio woofers for this line. So, not white van at all or at least legitmate white van.

Anytime I see the Techwood line of fine audio products, this is all I really see ...

Phone number points to Welton Sound Systems, which seem to no longer exist.

Bet I could make 'em go KER-POP if I Redneck engineered 'em up to the earphone jack on my MIGHTY Ratshak 9VDC transistor AM shirt pocket radio..
