SPEAKERS

      Most speaker companies buy their parts from a few generic manufacturers & then put these in a cabinet. Every speaker we carry is from a company that designs, engineers & manufactures every component in their own factory. The benefits include better sounding, more durable speakers of higher value, since you are not paying for multiple companies' markups. We choose our speakers for superior sound quality & best value, not for the biggest advertising budget. Over the past few years, we've tried over a dozen  U.S. & European speaker brands that didn't pass our high standards. Most of these speakers are now available at local competing stores.

A customer who has been a musician for over 30 years said, "The Quad 22 speakers are amazing; the best that I've ever heard." Another customer said, "After going to every other store, I had to buy the Quads. Their sound is the best by far."
