firewood, side table, or you can take the subwoofer out and make a toilet

the speaker itself

Lucky me! I was just scammed yesterday for $300. I thought it sounded like a good deal, apperantly they were worth $1,400....what, monopoly money? i just hooked it up today the tweeters dont sound terrible but the 12" subwoofer is a joke! So i am now telling you, if anyone aproaches you about buying this hunk of sh*t speaker. i own a pair of mirage m3 speakers which are pretty much the best of the best as far as home entertainment goes, i strongly recomend looking into buying a pair of those.

very quiet speakers (they're still in the box)

I am still have the brochure advertising the speaker for $849 each. And I am going to use it to sell this piece of junk to somebody else. At least I'll try to get back my $250

Guess what guys, I am laughing almost to dead. Same story as all of you, but the funny part is next: A policeman not in service was on the public phone when the guy aproach him, he talk like three minutes and then he came to me, and told me the same story. I was a little bit reluctant, but then I went to talk to the guy in the phone and he told me that he told the speaker seller that if this was stolen merchandise he will bust his ass, then he told me, don't worry, this guy is legit. hahahahaha, a Cop told me that! an he also bought a pair! That's funny

they work

scam

I just had to laugh.. My roomate had just bought a pair of the 707 series. He asked if I could look for reviews on the internet. You know to see if he got a good buy. I looked a couple of days ago and couldnt find this particular model on audioreview.com so I assumed they were such a low quality speaker that I would tell him that I couldnt find anything. Well I was bored at work and searched a couple of different search engines and on yahooo I found that there was reviews for similar speakers The 9901 professional speakers ooooooooohhh ahhhhhh!!!!! Anyway to my suprise it looks as if he is just another sucker and got scammed. I dont know what he paid for them but ill bet it was in the area of 150-300 dollars. He hooked them up to an old optimus stereo reciever and uses them to "DJ" at my house for parties and whatever. I have heard them and they do work but they sound like what you paid for. Ill tear them apart and see if they are using crossovers but I can guess not. Man is he giong to be pissed when I print the 205 reviews from this site. Most of which are Sh@#! Anyway way I have friends in High places and ill see what info I can get on those plates and plaster it in the site to all who are concerned. Then the power goes back to the people and we can take care of it our way if the powers that be cant do anything about it. Hey I have lots of time on my hands so if anyone has any info email me.

decent sound once the crossovers were installed

low bass, magnet size, crappy tiny wiring

I paid too much but it could have been worse. I have been using the 9901s for a while and my major complaint is lack of bass. I figure they only hit down to 40Hz or so. Also, the "crossovers" are crap. I''ve never really turned them up that loud but the woofer magnets are tiny. Here''s what I did and suggest to anyone who actually plans to use these speakers. Go to radioshack and get a couple 3-way passive crossovers ($16 each) and some decent wire (16 gauge or so).. Take off the grills and speakers and wire in the cossovers using the new wire. It''s pretty self-explanator how to use the crossovers. I really don''t think their scam was all that great, I wanted to believe it though because I actually figured they were stolen. I got what I deserved.

Make a great door stop.

Sound like @$$.

I live in Portland, Oregon. Apparently these guys are working here now. This afternoon (3/4/02), I was sitting in traffic on Foster Rd. and a guy in a late-model tan Pathfinder with California plates pulled up next to me and motioned for me to roll down my window. He gave me the same routine that I''ve read about so many times in these reviews. He seemed pretty surprised when I told him no, I didn''t want to buy his speakers. Thank God for AudioReview. It looked like he got some poor sap to fall for his line, because I saw a guy in a blue pickup truck follow him into the Tom Peterson''s parking lot. Poor fool. Thank God for audio review. So, folks in the Portland area: This was a white guy with long wavy hair pulled back in pony tail. He was driving a late-model tan Nisan Pathfinder with California plates. I would have written the plate number down, but I didn''t have a pen handy. I''m almost positive that the first 4 digits of the plate number were "3BUT", but I can''t remember exactly. The Pathfinder had those crash cages around the head- and tail-lights, and the right side of the bumper was hanging off, like he''d been rear-ended. Hopefully not too many people get scammed by these guys.

Only God knows

According to this site...everything

Yeah well I''m stupid. I just bid $30 on a pair of these speakers on ebay. I should have found this site before I got too excited about the 12" woofer and the 3 way design. No crossover...no thanks. Please join me in praying that someone outbids me. Thanks.

I HAVEN''T BOUGHT THESE SPEAKERS HOWEVER, I AM THE MANAGER OF A PAWNSHOP, AND THEREFORE I SEE THESE FOLKS ALL THE TIME WITH THEIR VANS AND SUV''S, BUT WORD OF WARNING THERE ARE ALSO SOME SPEAKERS CALLED DIGITAL AUDIO 2000 THAT LOOK LIKE THEY ARE WORTH ALOT, THEY ARE POLISHED WOOD AND EVERYTHING, ALUMINUM CONES AND LOOK GREAT, BUT WORTH ABOUT 50 APIECE AND THEY TRY TO PAWN THEM OFF FOR 400 A PAIR ALL THE TIME. SO WATCH OUT THEY DO THE SAME PARKING LOT SCHEME.

Never had a problem with them...

None, other than my friend paying way more than I did for the same speakers and the surround speakers. Sorry dude..

Same old story... However, my speakers sound pretty damn good. I have a Sony ES receiver and surround sound speakers. These speakers actually shake the walls and the sound is quality at least as far as I can tell.... I don''''t have the 9901 series but the 3000 model which are black about 2.5 ft. tall I think they are 3301. Anyways thanks guys I like em..

I had old crappy speakers that these replaced and wow what a difference.

I thought they were good but they definitely did not hold up under high pressure. I got ripped off

everything

I too got ripped off, I bought one speaker in June 97 and another in September 97, I used them until June 98 when I blew them out at a farm party, $550 down the drain for that shit, Those guys in white vans convinced me to pull over and showed me a book that said they were $850 a piece, unfortunately my dumbass bought them and I have paid severely for them, the guys in the van gave me the same story that they had received too many speakers on the shipment and they had to get rid of them before they dropped them off at the dock or their boss would take them, one guy said he had to sell a pair to get the cash for a hotel room to store the rest at and then he would put those in the paper, I thought I got a deal, now I realize I was seventeen and I got severely ripped off, Fuck those guys

This is just a warning to everybody that visits this website!! See review below.

I'm just posting this warning so nobody else gets ripped off by the two guys in the white van. I was approached in the beginning of this past December as I was leaving my local post office. Again, it was two young(approximately 30 years old) white guys in a white van. I didn't take notice if it was a Ford ,Chevy, or Dodge but it was definitely one of the Big Three. I'm not sure if it's the same speakers or not because I didn't fall for the bait. I had recently purchased several pairs of Aura LSW-828M's from uBid and wasn't interested in the junk they were peddling. I didn't even know about this scam until I saw several reviews for these speakers about a week after I was approached. I couldn't believe it! I would've written down their license plate number if I had known about this scam beforehand. I'm not sure if it's the same two guys or a ring but they sure do get around--they're everywhere!! Check out the addresses on our posts if you're not convinced. Just be wary if you're approached and be sure to get their plate # . I'm sure your local police dept. would love to talk to them.
