These are great speakers and less cost than an accessory speaker for sure. The $120 must be very new because I paid $99 in the last few weeks..

I think its the best rag chewing speaker on the market and will roll off a lot of static. They are really pleasant to listen to. On the other hand they are not the best speaker to pull someone out of the mud.

Sadly, I have found most Computer Speakers to be about the best thing going for the money.

The Sounds Sweet has its place. I have no intention of selling mine.

$120 for a speaker in a box?!  Yikes!  I thought the accessory speakers
in pretty cabinets that match the radio were expensive!

I looked up that Sweet Sounds speaker on the Internet, and it looks

"boomyness" in the
low end.  Is it as good as the web page makes it sound?
