Seen at a flea market just now.

One glance and I knew these had to be white van scam speakers.

What's with the 4 holes on the front?

One's the big woofer, one may be a tweeter, one may be an air hole... Is the fourth supposed to be a second tweeter?

One thing is to be scammed by white van speakers... whole other is to know about the scam and still buy them :D :D

Look up "bass reflex". It's a woofer, tweeter, midrange and a port. Although with speakers of that price and quality it would not be surprising if the midrange is a dummy cone to make it look like a 3-way when it's actually a 2-way.

Quad Orifice technology. It's complicated.
