Default Halfords goes hi-fi!

So one Sunday morning you splash out on some drive units, but they won't fit
in your car. That's all right though, 'cos you've got a garden, an spl
meter and a bloke who knows where he can get some veneer cheap. Et vóila!
They're...

Or perhaps I'm being a little ungenerous. They do /look/ good after all.

They say "Biwireable" yet the picture clearly shows single wire terminals.

I don't think they look good - an ugly, old-fashioned finish - but then I
guess they're built for "classical/live music appreciation" and therefore
any potential buyers would be old farts who live in dark and dingy homes,
obviously.

Lovely looking website though - really professional /

And they might sound lovely.
