That's a lot of dough for an ancient speaker set that doesn't really sound that good.

Oh, I think they sound rather good. However, I bought them for $23 less a month ago on Amazon w/no tax and free shipping. I'd wait for that sale if you can.

I just bought these speakers thru amazon for 109 and am very happy with them. Great sound. My only qualm with them is that they do not turn off unless you unplug them. That means they give off a bright light at nighttime...bacon's sorta like a blue nightlight. Otherwise, I'm very happy with them. And, they look cool!
