The other issue with "custom" is just a whole different story, I personally feel it shouldn't be called this, don't know about advertising laws there, but down under, this would probably go to the consumer protection agency as misleading advertising.

Anyhow, now that its too late to change the name, ill get over it and look forward to the reviews on the final products.
Advertising laws? Consumer Protection Agencies?.... You're Serious??? I'd think there would be far bigger injustices in the world to be concerned about other than Klipsch's apparent faux pas with names. So at first glance they may be a bit confusing to a Head-Fier (probably not many others though) but a cursory amount of research and it quickly becomes obvious what they actually mean.
