Identify Each Speaker That Gives an Argument for His or Her

question 90

Short Answer

Identify each speaker that gives an argument for his or her position in the following passage.
Terry: You don't need to spend a lot of money on a home stereo system. Just buy a good car stereo. They're just as good as home stereos, and they're cheaper. All you need is an AC to DC power converter, and you're in business.
Larry: Fine, except who says a car stereo is cheaper? Car speakers cost more than home speakers. Also, it isn't exactly cheap to replace your car system if it gets stolen, as often happens.
