The Worst Speaker you have ever heard.


This should be thought provoking. What is the worst speaker, or the most over-rated, over-priced, over-hyped speaker you have ever heard. Have you ever had speakers that you now wished you had kept?

Swan's Diva 3.1

I bought these over the internet sight unseen. After five minutes of listening I realized I had made a bad, bad mistake.
Well, Hell, as long as the moderators don't mind political cant.

THREE TEXAS SURGEONS

Three Texas surgeons were arguing as to which
had the greatest skill. The first began: "Three years
ago, I reattached seven fingers on a pianist. He went
on to give a recital for the Queen of England."
The second replied: "That's nothing. I attended a man
in a car accident. All his arms and legs were severed
from his body. Two years after I reattached them, he
won three gold medals for field events in the Sydney
Olympics."
The third said: "A few years back, I attended to
a cowboy. He was high on cocaine and alcohol when he
rode his horse head-on into a Santa Fe freight train
traveling at 100 miles per hour. All I had to work
with was the horse's ass and a ten gallon hat. Two
years ago he became president of the United States."

Yeeeeeeeeeeee............Hawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
I'm not sure what purpose responses to this question serve. In my 40+ years in this hobby, I don't think I have ever heard a piece of high-end audio equipment that would deserve this type of put-down. E.g. we are to believe that a pair of $14,500 Legacy Whispers are outperformed by every other speaker that Tweekman has heard in his lifetime? Really? I suppose that includes the Walmart and Circuit City speaker lines also? Certainly he has heard these as some point in his life. This type of hyperbole helps no one and can hurt honest business people who are trying,after all, to make our lives more pleasurable. I have twice visited Bill Dudleston at his Legacy factory . He is a true gentleman. He has built a successful business from the ground up thru hard work and has a loyal customer base. He also is extremely bright and one of the better speaker designers according to his peers and numerous journal reviews.

I have no objection to people expressing their opinion in a positive way, but such derogatory statements are demeaning, most of all, to the person making such statements.

There is probably no piece of audio gear that engenders more disagreement than speakers. Everyone seems to have their own favorite. Just look at the thread here relating to the best speaker you have ever heard. There are about as many opinions as posters. Isn't it great that we have so many choices? Do we want to put more companies like Dunlavy out of business thru negativism? I think not. Cheers.
foreverhifi2000 and I do not seem to agree on much.

However, not only do his statements above appear to be quite accurate, they appear to be very insightful and wise as well.

Both from an audio perspective and from a political perspective.

Well said, forever.
