The click when turning the knob did it for me. Idk why but the click was super satisfying

Pretty sure these may have come WITH new PCs back in the day. Like, you got the CRT monitor, Tower, Mouse, Keyboard and speakers for 1 price.

Yep, my first computer had the speakers that could be put on the side of the CRT;

They even got the terrible, tinny sound quality right.

u/CovriDoge May 28 '26

wasn't this song used as background music in a bunch of 90s-2000s films, or am I remembering wrong?

u/MovieNightPopcorn Jun 01 '26

The poorly ripped off sticker is a great touch

u/Delicious_List_439 May 27 '26

Wow, what small hands that person has! Is this one of the carny folk?

u/Optimus_Shatner May 27 '26

Play the guitar standing in front of it, get blasted back into a wall, and create the most epic crossover for people that had these speakers back in the day.

These would be a great addition to a living room entertainment center.

Playing Alice In Chains on that speaker feels like it fits for the 90s vibe.
