[QUOTE="Silas Pradetto, post: 33760, member: 34"] Re: Yes, it's cliche, yes it's overdiscussed, but yes, I need new subs. At this point, I think I'm guaranteed to build more LAB subs in the future. For now, I need something smaller to get me by until that day comes, and those smaller subs should be able to take care of my smaller shows.
