    Thanks a million! Some of the things you mentioned I have already seen and earmarked as attractive. Hmm? You really know your stuff. Mainly here, ELAC, JBL, Klipsch and Teufel seem to reign supreme. It seems that the amount of 'room' in the enclosure is very important for tuning. For PR...

    Right you are RobertL about user knowledge needed to keep from destroying a sub. The one I currently have has a VERY BAD rep for failing. In my case I use it like crazy for music and movies.

    Subwoofer distortion

    My current sub (Creative S-750) works pretty good but, I have noticed some new movies with good sound tend to overtax it causing this flubbing sound. King Kong sounds very good at high levels. the floor and walls will vibrate. But! The newest Batman movie causes the bass to flubb bad! Is this...
