Speakers are the same everywhere. You're problem is lack of warrenty.

Yeah they look cheap, unless you have to pay customs duty and VAT, then they work out the same price nearly.

Yea, true. Im looking at getting some:
Audiobahn ABC600T 6.5" Component Set
Audiobahn DUB5004 4 Channel Amp
Audiobahn ACS2046P 4X6"
Sub and Another amp will have to wait 2 months
Is there a good price difference??
Remember what Pete said.. you might have to pay duty on them so maybe not so worth it.

They will be louder than UK equivalents (but a bit harsher too) ;)
As above, be careful with this.
Can't remember the facts but anything over something like $30 has to have duty applied.
Again from memory, you pay 3% on the item, and the packaging, and the shipping costs.
Once you add this all up, you pay 17.5% VAT on the sum.
Can turn a bargain :) into a non-bargain :( Specially if you have a fault.

Still cheaper for Audiobahn. If those numbers are right, ill probably pay £50 or less (Robbing Sods). Acturley thats not bad, im saving probably £280 on most of the equipment. Thats well worth it. I love ebay :D
