donquixote99 Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 Was talking to a guy today, and he said he had some AR speakers (Acoustic Resources, he guessed), that he's using as his 'rear speakers.' Said they had two knobs on the front of them.Looks to me like they'd be AR-91s or AR-92s. Pretty major rear speakers....Anyone know anything else they could be?

donquixote99 Posted January 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 Looked again, and AR 91s and 92s have switches, not knobs, and on the back in any case. Maybe what the guy has actually are 'Audio Resources....' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donquixote99 Posted January 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 or "Acoustic Reference." These are a genuine white van marque. Pictoral evidence exists. They have knobs....Link to 'Acoustic Reference Speaker Fraud' page: http://globalaudio.20megsfree.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michiganpat Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 AR made some low end speakers for I think places like sears and military (BX) stores) in the late 80's/early 90's, the SRT line...the SRT 330 and 380 have 2 knobs on the top....from an old audiokarma post from Ken Kantor, former engineer at AR:"SRT's were a line made by AR specifically for Sears. Compared to similar speakers, they are pretty decent, but nowhere near the quality of the regular AR models."AR380SRT260 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donquixote99 Posted January 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 Ah, that's a perfectly likely possibility, Pat. Thanks.We'll never know the truth of it unless the guy gets back to me. Didn't get his number or anything.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
