$220 less for open-box? they're non-powered speakers so as long as you can check them when they arrive I assume you'd know within the return window if something was wrong?
110 less not 220

Believe it or not, I'd rather see this than some of the crap that's been on slick deals lately. I've been a member for a while and it seems to get worse as time goes on

I agree
The quality of product you see on here has certainly diminished in the past few years

I personally have also purchased many a higher end open box item from Best Buy/Magnolia over the years..so I have no issue with it

I've never heard KEF. So many speakers, so little time.

Wanting the black set but wondering if it's worth saving the $40 for Walnut...
Where will you take those $40 to? Not to the grave, just buy and live man, it's all cool.

I think it's because a lot of it is staff just posting anything to get the clickthrough earnings. This place is nothing like it used to be.

I use three Kali in8 v2 for left right center, 4 Tannoy vxp6 as surrounds and 2 sealed 10 inch subs from NHT all processed with an Integra dtc 9.8. Everything from ebay and facebook marketplace.
