Yeah I bought some. Can't remember what they were called.
This happened at Jeepster Records back in 1997 in Clapham Junction. Hilariously after purchase and when they were in the office we listened and they were awful, just awful... so we went and got a refund! I can't recall how we found where they were located but we went and parked a car across their drive and demanded a refund and returned the speakers. Achieved it too... full cash refund :D

They pulled up as I was walking out of my house and asked if I wanted to buy some speakers. They were extra one ordered by mistake. I could have them for £100. They gave me the number of their office to call to check the price. When I did the sales girl said they were >£300 (I think). I had to get a lift to the cash point.
When I played them they weren't as good as my Eltax, but they weren't the worst things on earth. I remember being surprised as they were more wpc and had more speaker cones. I ran them plus my eltax. On reflection 4 floor standing speakers was probably overkill for my uni bedrooms.
Thinking about it now maybe I misremembered how much I paid, as even if they were complete junk surely there's a limit as to how cheap you could make them? I mean there is still a fair bit of wood. Doesn't seem like much margin.
