i have some audiobahn speakers. ive got no problem with them, and they were cheap, they will look cool once i get them in place too.
yes, most of their stuff is garbage. some of their stuff is ok (those new subs and some of the amps)
but yes. mostly people who dont know anything buy them from best buy because they look cool, same thing with rockford fosgate. and im sad because i bought both things just to find out its a waste of money for not researching.
i wish i had found this site before i started in car audio and saved a few hundred bills.
