Most speaker companies try to impress you by describing the “incredible” sound that comes out of their speakers. At Pioneer, we think the best way to describe how good HPM speakers are is to tell you what went into them. Instead of a HMO conventional tweeter, you'll find HPM speakers have a unique supertweeter.

In regard to John Swenson’s review of Briofcase Full of Blues, by the Blues Brothers (Issue 211): Why doesn't Swenson get off his high horse and admit he just doesn't like artists who are proficient in their work ‘experimenting in other areas and showing real potential? Either ‘Swenson is tone deat or just plain stupid, because the people who buy the records (rather than getting them for free, so they can write Unbelievably assinine reviews about them) do not agree with him. Last week, the Blues Brothers album hit number five in Rolling Stone. If competent reviewers would quit associating Belushi and Aykroyd with the Blues Brothers, the group would have a better chance of making it. That may sound strange, but if ‘Swenson will think it through (if that’s Possible for him) it will make sense. He probably can’t even figure out why the group's name is the Blues Brothers. No, Johnny, it isn't because everyone's eyes are blue. {As for the rest of the articles in Circus Weekly, I have only a slight bit more compassion. | let my Crem ‘subscription run out in anticipation of receiving Circus twice as often, being written just as well.
