    Sean, you are losing it.

    Buy the speakers, if you don't get the cable, you can make one. What kind of power do you plan on using?

    reasonable price, look at it this way, you could hold out for a pair at 300.00, pay 100.00 in shipping and receive busted speakers, or just pick these up local and save the damage. at 400.00 you are coming out ahead.

    Get 'em....no sub needed, IMO.

    If, for some reason, you don't like them....you will have NO problem unloading them.

    Get 'em and don't look back. I have a pair right now, they are excellent speakers. I don't think you need to convert your sub, but I use an equalizer to get a little more from them.
