My husband being a newcomer to Canada got scammed by those guys a couple of years ago.
The funny thing is that the Home Theatre system works beautifully:)

My Brother got ripped off with these guys a few years ago... They got him at a gas station in Mississauga.

He basically bought cheap ass speakers from a back of a cargo van. He paid $150 for the pair, which was WAAYY to much.

They were suppose to be 100 watts, three way speakers, fluid cooled, and have a built in passive crossover.

The speakers were 100 watts combined (high 15, mid 30 low 55), no fluid anywhere in the speaker, and not over way there no crossover, there were 3 cold solder joints i had to re-solder.

All and all he got ripped off.



Was this the baby or the middle one? LOL


I was out test driving a car (with dealer plates and everything!) 3 years ago in Etobicoke - a black van (not SUV) pulled up to me with my mother in the car, and offered a 'brand new high quality speaker set' he had in the back of the van - while we were waiting at a red light!

I had always assumed that guys in the trucks had real goods, but they were stolen. I guess for those to lazy to steal something of legitimate value to fence in a parking lot, they are just pretending with some cheap garbage.


I got some great (but hot) tools for my husband years ago!!

As for those speaker guys, the worst part is.. it's legal.
In most cases, they are actually running legitimate businesses, however obviously their practices are not so ethical.
