    100% SQ subs.
    If you search around u'll find a lot of people comparing Polk's SR subs to G5s all the time.

    Yeah Boston is definitely all about sound quality. Always thought their speakers were a little on the bright side but overall Id have no qualms about buying their stuff.

    I have pulled good numbers both in sound quality and with spl. Bostons roll off very quickly in 1 cubic ft enclosures. And the 27 htz tones are impressive...Digital Designs are pretty much bullet proof.
