Not a good time to be selling things with the Andrew Jones name.
Just my 2 cents, but most of the glowing reviews come from people who have upgraded from really lousy speakers - such as the ones included with HTIB systems.
When buying speakers on a budget, your best bet is to buy used audiophile grade speakers that have good foam surrounds (or have been refoamed). Classic Advents with new foam sell for around $100 for the pair these days. old school Polks are affordable too. Also when you go back to the 1970s, Realistic (yes, Radio Shack's brand) speakers still do pretty well when compared to the cheap stuff made today.
Won't old audiophile grade speakers have rubber surrounds?
