And that was my only point-
You make a pejorative comment based on your opinion of equipment not mentioned but only the manufacturer.

A common practice among those accused of being "elitist".

Nothing wrong with an opinion but they are most useful here when based on actual use of the equipment mentioned. But as I said I at least appreciate that you are forthright in where you are coming from. The "elitist" most despised is the one who fails to recognize they are an "elitist".

Flo- don't worry I am sure that among many of your fans here you are still #1.....
BTW-Those frequencies you mention are quite impressive-must come in handy during whale mating season......

For those of you besides SVI who were attracted to the thread's title here are the specs to the sub I mentioned;

Frequency Reponse 20 Hz - 200 kHz
Impedance 3 ohm
Subwoofer Power 250 Watt
Woofer Size 10"

For the price paid ($99 after a $100 rebate) it makes a pretty good addition (see the reviews on this forum) to the low-mid budget set-up but as you can tell it is not well recieved among the "elitist" because of it's association with Sony who have admittedly produced poor subs (muddy/boomy) in the past.
