  When I went to Future Shop in search for a speaker set, the first one that caught my attention was the Monsoon MH500. The box was nothing but a lot of raindrops and had written on it, "Drenched in sound". I saw it on display around the corner will all the other sets, like the Cambridge Soundworks 4-point surround set. The Monsoon was priced at $129.95 CDN, where as the Cambridge was priced at $69.95 CDN. So why did I chose the Monsoon?
