I bought these a few weeks ago via Moofi - for $99 a pair. They are really nice speakers and sound great (for their size). We put them out on the deck and they're awesome.

I may pick up a second pair for near our hot tub.

Curious, The Amazon site says it needs 2 AA batteries(included), Why would a speaker need batteries. They aren't self powered in any way. Must be a typo.

Sorry to be so slow, but I'm confused. How do these work--are these wireless? Do they need a special receiver? Will they work with just my t.v.? If I have to run wires, thanks but no thanks.

@pvandehey: These are wired speakers without a built-in amplifier, so they would need to be connected by speaker wire to an amplified source (e.g. a/v receiver or stereo speaker-out), like regular floor speakers. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Nothing about batteries at the following sites, looks like the seller on Amazon incorrectly listed batteries.

@pvandehey: They're standard speakers. You hook them up just like any other normal speakers ;)

@waj: These speakers definitely don't take batteries (I own them)

I bought a pair of these from woot when they were on, and one of the speakers lasted all of a half hour before it died. I contacted Xantech to try and get warranty service but they said no. So I tried woot, but woot said thay didn't have any more to exchange so I had to return the pair (after they had been installed!). I'm still waiting for my refund.

The one speaker sounded "okay", but not as good as the Boston's they were replacing. For the price they would have been acceptable. But I've since bought others to replace these since they were DOA.

Now if I could only get my refund.....

Bought these on Woot last time I saw them, and they sound great!! I'm very happy with them.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
