Hello,
you have to try, there can work.
The Only difference is the Mounting deepth.

I have made a request through Amazon to return the speakers. That request goes to Extreme Audio for their approval. Hope so, cause , if not, I am stuck with $239 useless speakers + $35 in shipping charges. Just be careful and don't make the same mistake.
Where you guys getting the Eton B100W's?
By the way, disconnected the center channel and it made a drastic improvement.

Well, they approved the return which costs $54 thru USPS. Fedex wanted $124 but it only costs $35 shipping via Fedex FROM Germany. So I've wasted $85 because I didn't pay attention to one digit in the model #. Now I must spend another $35 if I want to re-order for a total of $120. Not sure it's worth it. All my own fault though. |
If it's just mounting depth why not just get some spacers on eBay? Much cheaper than shipping them back.
