Hi

In Germany THIS is the actual White-Van-Epedemia...

At time here are bunch of people who probably bought them "outofthevan" without receipt trying to get rid of them on ebay. With receipt, their is a way to return them and get money back... what works without resistance in the (central?) storage of the german distribution-mafia, as i read. I Guess the have such much proud victims that a few returns doesn't matter.

here's a Thread about in a german forum
http://www.hifi-forum.de/index.php?action=browseT&forum_id=30&thread=12782


they even provide a website, to make people believe in the SCORE they made

First time i see them sold on eBay USA, or are they known already?

Here you hear every week from people buying this junk off a truck. Most find out soon what they gotten and try to sell via eBay with the funniest explaining stories WHY they sell their piece of high end

Thanks for the heads up. I've seen a pair listed on my local Craigslist in the past

I love the +/- 3dB sensitivity spec. Oh Boy.

LMAO!!! 88db + 3db.... WTF?

Why do their systems with three different drivers only have one crossover frequency? are the 5.25" midrange drivers hooked up with the 8" woofer?? Their site reeks of seediness.

LMAO!!! Their site reeks of seediness.

Ah yes, but it plays to the most base of human motivations...Greed:yes:

Hi

so, it seems that they are not that common here? They are told to be "made in USA" i guess, but i think they are chinese made - sometimes i saw similar cheap appearing Speakers with nearly identical looking drivers on ebay and in any other thread in HiFi-Forum i saw a link on a Tweeter looking exactlly like the thing inside this Prodigy-Speaker - priced at 2,70€ - what means worth little more than a Bread...

I thought this White-Van-Distribution would dry out after a while, i had my first visual contact to people buying Speakers out White-Vans in the early 80s in Berlin, but i guess gready and stupid will not die out

There is one of their $2495 k3 sytems for sale at my local Cash Converters for $995. I chuckle every time I'm in there since they are the store that sold me my Lentek Monitors for $180
