I was in reference to "new" prices instead and the comments made about "old" equipment. If your alright with ebay, great! If not, I'm mearly introducing alternatives in the best price/quality range. As far as better than Crown, I never stated that any of the products in my list(today or any other time) were superior in performance to the Crowns or the Mackies... just a viable alternative that may be of equal quality for less(new).

Didn't mean to mislead you.
