Speakers!!
Continental Airlines. I checked a bag with pillows, sheets and shoes all around. In the middle of this cradle was a pair of Aiwa speakers. Somehow they managed to break both of them: when I lift them up I can physically hear the insides thumping around the unattractive beige cases.
So I'm in the market for new speakers. I don't want to spend much more than $120. An obvious first choice are the Sound Sticks and iSub, but I'm really not sold on them. They look fabulous, but the ones I've heard distort at any 'real' volume.
Can any of you recommend speakers? I'm looking for good overall quality: good bass, good vocals.
Thanks in advance.

Anyway, I have more to say, but I must go now. Be back later.

Anyway, airlines would like to think that they aren't responsible (and they claim that they aren't responsible for incidental outward damage to baggage -- such as scratches and cosmetic damage -- which seems reasonable). However, the truth is that if they *really* damage your bag (such as rips, tears, broken zippers, etc.) they will probably replace it.
Anyway, the Klipsch speakers are awesome. I would recommend the ProMedia 2.1 system for you. The satellites sound phenominal for their size, and the sub has great sound and is not overbearing.
On a bummer side-note, I have to send my 4.1 system in for replacement because the digital input from the main satellite to the pre-amp went haywire and the system won't power up now. So I am speaker-less for another week.
I guess it's good that Klipsch stands behind their products, though. They didn't mess around when I called to report the defective system. They just took my order number and within five minutes they had confirmation that a new system would be shipped with a pre-paid mailing label (for the old system) within the day. Service still counts for something, apparently.
