They’re an absolute flop, that’s why. 

If they weren’t designed by AJ, they would have never been taken seriously at any point.  There is literally nothing special or good about them, even at half off.  

They are unforgiving speakers. A lot of returns and re-sales within the first few months.

At their price points, they offer nothing new. The KEF R3 is a safer purchase.

AJ should focus on improving his under $500 speakers, as that is his talent and that’s where the market is. 
The KEF R3 simply embarrasses the Adante stand mount in a much smaller package and for $500 less.  
Yeah these got a lot of initial hype then fizzled out fast. Never had a chance to hear them.  KEF R3 came along and is very good!
