    The cement is there on purpose,but only to fool people into thinking they’re good speakers as usually the heavier the speakers the better the quality.

      Yeah you can tell when something is cheap and poorly made Chinese crap if it's lightweight and feels like nothing is inside

      Yeh... appropriate magnet and gauge of wire selection is irrelevant. What you definitely want is more heavy copper and the weaker, heavier common iron magnets... in every situation!

      Well they did put a small amount of cement in them,but some other scam speakers mostly the floor standing ones they literally put whole bricks inside them for the weight,just pick up some bricks on the street and throw them in there :D

    They’re trying to fool you into thinking it is a Bose. These are cheaper than the Bose with smaller magnets and less wattage and weight. They used cement to make it feel like a Bose. The treble on these probably sucks and that midbass probably sounds absolutely muddy. The Bose has less of those problems.

    Congrats on 45k! I've been watching since I was 10 years old in 2011. I still remember how I found your channel. My father sometimes warned me not to turn up my computer speakers too loud or else I could blow them, and after a couple of years of wondering what that actually looked like and how much speakers can take before blowing, I got it in my head to look it up on UA-cam.
    Sure enough, it didn't take long to find this one guy named "Garret Claridge" who specializes in such things. I found all of your content amusing, and I've watched almost every video in the nearly 8 years of following your channel. Congratulations on the 45K milestone! You're one of the longest standing UA-camrs, and it's nice to see you finally gaining some traction. Keep it up!

    I dare you to blow some bose 901 speakers. Hook 'em up and they will take whatever your system can dish out. No way can you kill them. Btw, it's gotta be the whole speaker, not just a single driver. I've heard they are invincible!

    Unfortunately a friend got conned into this system from a van in Canada Aug 2019. Everything identical but some print on the box. Under name Sonaus SN-7. (A play on Sonos) Says “Digital Home Theater”. “Remote” (no remote... nothing to control by remote anyways) . You’d think you were buying a powered home theater system. Not so. Nothing digital about it. Just real cheap old school speakers. Said MSRP of $2563. Hahahahaha ...Concrete in the speakers.... Hahahaha.... so that’s how they got heavy.
