New speaker quality and cost comparisons

Tips on value and quality

To determine quality, look at the workmanship and check the manufacturer's warranty. if the warranty is short (5 years or less), you have proof even the manufacturer isn't confident in the quality of their speakers!

But, buyer beware of cheap speakers too. Because inexpensive most frequently means low quality components or cabinetry.
