Price Paid:  $30.00 from Goodwill

Summary:
Picked this up at Goodwill a few years ago; great little speaker for under $100. Absolutely amazing bass and good highs/mids. I'm not sure where its weak exactly as far as frequency but it will get fatiging after hours of play at high levels. I must reiterate that for the money/diminuative size, they can supply the sound for parties and pull it off brilliantly. Truely a David(as in David and Goliath) but there is really no imaging whatsoever. Jazz sounds excellent, bass response is shockingly good(for its size), a great little speaker for the bedroom, shop, office, or rear usage in HT. Now I want to check out the rest of the Boston line.

Strengths:
Bass, Dynamics, size, price, off axis listening

Weaknesses:
Imaging
