Matt,

If they are Aaron as opposed to Arron the yes they are quite a respectable brand. These appear to be an early version of the ATS5

For the price hard to go wrong.

Let your ears be the judge. Don't just buy them because they sound like a bargain. I take it you will
be collecting them yourself.  Ask to hear them, before you part with the cash.  NO HEAR, NO CASH

Remember getting the "Free"  Dog, That cost how much to get fixed up at the Vets

This rings all sorts of warning bells,

Arron Speakers very large and LOUD!!  



Been flogged

You would think he would want to get his money back, at the very least

Didn't end up getting them as upon closer inspection they were in pretty bad shape, lots of dings and scratches on the wood and one of the tweeters weren't working. The cloth covers were also hacked. They guy said he thrashed them a fair bit.

That receiver looks as if it has had a hard life as well.

Hey guys,
I bought one of hi-fi speaker system last thursday, my Sonus Faber Liuto  , yay! Anyway, somewhere between unpacking the system and my kids cleaning it up, I lost the manual :(. I'm now unsure what some of the menu options are. Need to download technical card , suggest me any resource to get it.
