    Agree on the x-over and driver change criticism... shack pretty well nailed the course of action in his post...

    Also let's be clear about the models... there's the 40i, the 400i and the 400 with the latter two now discontinued. Don't see the 400 for sale much anymore. There is one 400i on ebay right now:
    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3053339489&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:US:1

    And faster, I tend to watch the movie and not stare at my bulky old 400...:D
    More later,
    Tour...

    Personally the 40 doesn't look that hot compared to the 350LS. The 400 is the ugliest of them all.

    Agree with shack and wallstreet.....

    Polk didn't get to where they are by being dumb and inept.

    Let's not put the cart before the horse and leave the speaker design to the pros.

    Agree 100% on the look of the 350, but the 400 easily outperforms it...
