Who is Gonna Buy A New Jeep Grand Wagoneer For the MacIntosh Stereo?
For some reason, whenever a hifi company starts making speakers for cars (a Jeep, no less). their reputation is a stake. I'm not attracted to it at all and that's NOT going to be changing my mind to purchase one. Hmmm, let's see Pass Labs in Cadil...
