What is the worst-sounding pair of home stereo speakers you have ever experienced?

I remember when I was 20....young and dumb (yeah, like the "dumb" part has changed much...)...I had read all of these great reviews for the Advent Prodigy II Tower, so I parted with $500 (in 1980's dollars) and bought a pair. They were dreadful. I knew even back then that they would not be ideally suited for hard rock, but the woofers popped and rattled at even the mere HINT of bass, and at modest volume levels too.

What was the last pair of home audio speakers that you were really disappointed with?

I spent $2600 on a pioneer system with tower speakers back in 1989. I still have it and have no complaints.

My friend had car speakers hooked up to his stereo. It sounded like crap.
