Last night playing cards with friends I asked to hear some music not remembering they had the dreaded Blose Acoustimess Shreikers.While these speakers always sound bad ... it seems that the wife of the house had forced her (p-whipped) hubby to "hide" all five Acoustimess cubes next to each other BEHIND the large screen TV set!
The result of these horrible shreikers and the bizarre locations of the five speaker stands created the worst sound quality I have ever heard, especially when the wine flowed and the volume was gradually increased.
Do you have any horror stories about hearing awful speakers in someone else's home or store?
