In a genius twist by the scriptwriters, Jethro spots
a review on a website called ASR that shows he can actually get a good speaker for just a few dollars more than his Polks, and that the Polks actually sound ok as rear surrounds on top of his bookshelf due to their acoustic axis being below the tweeter (although dyslexic, he's actually a fast learner, no-one believed in him at school though, hung around with the wrong crowd, suffered from depression, turned to drinking...).
Meanwhile, Billy-Bob has decided to get a second pair of speakers for his bedroom and invites his brother round to show off his snazzy new KEF LS50s. Jethro has a good listen, says 'Yeah they're alright mate', and on the way back to his place bursts out laughing because he realises his little $100 'Poverty Pioneers' as his brother called them
sound better than a pair of $1500 KEFs.
Hmm...the scriptwriters might need to change the name of the show.
