CosmicVoyager aficionado Registered: 02/01/04 Posts: 789 Loc: Asheville, NC	http://www.ikon-audio.com/index.html The site looks a little fishy to me. They don't provide good specs, a phone number and email.Is it Just me? _________________________ M80's VP150 QS8's Earthquake SuperNova MKV-15 Integra DTR-7.4 Outlaw 755 Outlaw M200's Outlaw ICBM

pmbuko shareholder in the making Registered: 04/02/03 Posts: 15984 Loc: Leesburg, Virginia	Judging solely by the site, I'd steer clear. Just look at the graphs on this page. It looks like they can't even get their crossovers right if the response really leaves big gaps like that. (I realize the graphs are for illustration purposes only, but still...) They don't give any detailed specs whatsoever. I'm willing to bet that the frequency responses would not be very flat. _________________________ -- Let me tell you a story about why I believe anecdotal evidence. --

I haven't got a clue, but... ...at first glance at the photo, and I don't know why I think this, but for some reason the "White Van" speakers come to mind. Gotta be one helluva big van though All kidding aside; if they were sold thru a high-end store, they may, of course, have been legit. At any rate, never heard of 'em either.....wonder how many thousand different speaker manufacturers are existant on any given day??!! Bet it's a bunch Rich.

LightninJoe aficionado Registered: 10/28/05 Posts: 552 Loc: Portland, OR	I don't see IKON anywhere on the white van scam list but that doesn't make them legit. Their website is a bit odd. And there does seem to be some big gaps in their freq. response. For $7000 each? I don't think so. _________________________ "That's some catch, that Catch-22." "It's the best there is."

bridgman axiomite Registered: 08/25/04 Posts: 5256 Loc: Bowmanville, Ontario, Canada	The factory address seems to be the same as that of Quest Audio, who made some nice inexpensive speakers sold through Futureshop : http://www.questhifi.com/speakers/home.html Those IKON speakers sure are big, aren't they. Hmm. Just poked around the Quest site. The speakers I knew and liked seem to have been discontinued. Edited by bridgman (11/16/05 11:16 PM)
