I can remember a song, but not who sang it. The context was about like
this 'buy cheap speakers and the best tuner and amp you can get'. I go by
this since I'm up to 80 watts per channel on a four channel system and my
volume on Rock and Roll at some of the outback campsites I go to is
memorable. When they rate a speaker at 150 watts, thats when to expect
flames. They normally self destruct long before that and sound like a
1930s am radio. But if you're listening to Rapp then that crackle, burr,
zizz ads a needed quality to it.

Sure there is probably a difference ............ everybody I know threw
them away and installed decent speakers.
Blaupunkt makes cheap speakers and good speakers and VWs have the cheap
speakers.

Man, i just spent 3 hours trying to see which OEM speaker was less sh*tty
than the other..    all that for nothin..   ;<P
