$1400 for the 3007!!!! .........you suck!!!! It is ~$2600 up here, same goes for the Denon 4310 I bet the best I could do on Boxing day (our Black Friday) would be $1900-2000.

I believe what Randy is suggesting is that your M80s were bottoming out not your subwoofer. Ahhh... well if you're right about that, then all I have to say is this.... negative. I ruled that possibility out almost immediatelly. I disconnected every speaker except the EP800 and ran the 'Cave' scene among other extreme LFE movie sequences and the EP800 was 100% the culprit. And let me also say that I've never heard the M80's bottom out. I can't speak for how well they perform with a reciever pushing them because when I had the Denon hooked up to them I never went past zero on the volume knob, because they started to sound strained. But I can say that with the Emotiva supplying the full 400 watts that they're rated to handle, I can not bottom them out. And I've pushed them, trust me. Those things are the real poop!

So explain to me why some products cost so much up there compared to here? You’re not really all that more socialist than we are.

Based on your descriptions of what you were hearing I didn’t think it was your problem. Randy just doesn’t like it when we run our M80s large, or w/really low crossovers.

Not enough competition to keep the price down. You can only buy the 3007 around Calgary from a couple of places in the retail market or go with some of the HT companies and get charged even more!

Knoblauch wird durch die Luftwaffe verboten. Well at least that kind is. 7 years 2 months and (runs out of fingers) 14 days, not that I’m counting. With my luck, by then the lefties will have brought us national healthcare and the righties will use it as an excuse test everyone. I can’t count the number of times I’ve warned my lefty friends to be careful what they wish for. Garlic related (the real kind), I freaked out a cashier at the grocery store the other day when I bought over a kilo of garlic. She looked at me quizzically so I looked around as if to check who was watching, then leaned forward and said “Vampires! Avondale’s crawling with them.” I love freaking people out.

I just remembered one pre/pro which has separate sub-woofer outputs. Its feature-set is a little dated now, but the Theta Digital, Casablanca III can have up to 12 outputs, mapped from any number of input channels, with individually set crossover points. So you could take the left input and send >80 Hz to one output, and then the <80 Hz also of the left input to a separate out. It can have front/rear subs, or left/right very easily.
