Ok Leon. Despite the fact that I don't have any clue of how much that thing is, I get a sense that it wasn't that funny. What's up with the "THX" crap? Let's just say I didn't even think those initials were supposed to belong in a home...
I'm actually looking at one of the lower end Sony receivers. I live in a small apartment and I really don't need that much power. So I'm also planning to get a very small subwoofer. The 8" that usually comes with the Energy Take5 sets sounded pretty good at GoodGuys today. But was definitely more that what I need. Basically what I want in a subwoofer is not that much power: just low but clean, deep, ambient bass. How much would I have to pay for a sub like that?
