Right there - it's all right in front of you. Anyone with experience with audio can just look at that and see the shabby, low quality, low fidelity, ultra-low budget, low rent, low product that it is.

Look at how cheap and shabby those drivers are. Compare that to the sand cast horns and high quality woofers that Altec used, or better quality drivers pretty much any quality manufacturer used.

That there's definately the bargain bin at Woolworth [or Kmart]; not the featured product display at Macy's.
