hmm.. doesnt look like they've skimped on the construction..

never heard of them before though.. will post on talkaudio.co.uk.. see what they think..

[formula]

actually.. US blaster.. i take it they're a US company..

if you've been converting from dollars to pounds to get your figures i wouldnt bother.. once imported (even by a regular importer) you're always going to pay roughly whatever they pay in dollars :(

basically.. when looking at US kit $=£..

gits... id have some unbelievable bits and pieces if i lived over there.. polk momo gear is well under half what we pay for it over here...

ill ask if anyones heard of US Blaster anyway..

I think i would go with the you get what you pay for.

Thats is very cheap for what it is , I paid £180 for my 10" sub and £400 for the AMP ,Expensive but the sound quality is very high.

For only £45 it might be worth a risk, I can always replace it later when funds allow, but I do agree you get what you pay for normally
