Cerwin Vega! but thinking back it might of also had something to do with the amplifier which is still popular and highly controversial around reviewer pages. After a break then returning to audio I thought I could build a quick and easy HIFI after growing inpatient. Instead it turned out to be more of a high-fry system. That story had a happy ending I was able to bundle it off to someone that used to frequent rock concerts and favored sitting so close he probably scared the band members. True story and I bet he has permanent partial hearing loss by now.
I don’t know which is worse that stereo set up or Donald Trump but both pain my ears to the point I just cannot bear to listen to either one even in very small doses.
