Wrong assumption ILD. I'm in some oil field in the vastness of the Gulf of Thailand at the moment. Please feel free to recommend shops in Manila. That's why I am mainly using the internet for my researches and am solely relying on numbers so to speak. Hope this explains my long queries at times (here and in other threads).

I'd really love to do the auditioning myself but as you can see I'm in the middle of nowhere stuck in a 120x35m floating contraption with 200++ people from all over the world. :-D

So I sold my PG subs and replaced it with my newly purchased JL. Then a few months later, another good offer came, this time a 4-channel Infinity amp (used ofcourse ). bought it, and sold my V12 amp. Along the way I purchased a clarion 7-band equa for more control. So in my experience its an evolving process, that could be be an expensive hobby but a satisfying hobby if done right.
Thanks for sharing your experience. However, to be quite frank, I have no intentions of turning it into a hobby for several reasons.
Thanks for the input guys.
