Anyone tried the Rhinehart look-alikes for $200?

Buying the immitations is like buying a Roadstar...if you want the Rineharts, spend the money and get them. Everytime I've cut a corner or cheaped out on something, I've never really been satisfied with not having the real thing (or I've learned the hard way why you buy the real thing). That's just me, to each his own though.
If you get a hold of the fake ones, let us know about the quality and how they work. I'd be interested in knowing.

Well thats your way of thinking I guess... I dont care if I paid $1000 for mine if I hear a set that sounds better for $200, I would say it! So that said these dont sound like ANY (not just mine) Rineharts that I have ever heard. Just my opinion though. If someone is looking for a sound like this, it seems like a great deal for $200! I'm just saying they dont sound like RH's to me.

I totally agree i mean you spent $17,000 for mine and for me i would not let a couple hundred bucks stand in my way. I have called rineharts customer service and they are great so if it was me i would save for the real thing
