    Really?

    Cuz I can't hear a difference.

    I did a perfectly leveled matched comparison and there is NO way there is a difference....none....nada.

    I'd take some measurements, but my tricorder isn't working right now, but I swear, when I get it back, I'll take some measurements to prove it!

    I only picked "B" cuz it looks cooler! :D

    You come in here with your insidiuos, baseless point of view and expect us to accept that as gospel. If you refute me, I'll shall close my mind and continue to espound on "B"! Because I said so, that's why!

    I AM ALWAYS RIGHT!!!! Whoa, I don't know where that came from, lol. I know C is the right choice because it comes in a pretty package and is manufactured by a big name brand company and it costs about 3 times as much as a non name brand one. Not to mention the guy at Best Buy recommended it to me as the best option.

    That should have been offered as choice "D" if the OP wasn't so pig-headed and unwilling to listen to reason.

    I did a double blind test of the two blah's and single balh over a 3 day period and I definately found a difference. I chose balh a fill 86% of the time. Definatley a statistically significant amount to verify that it is possible to determine differences between Blah's and Balh's. I can provide detailed testing paramenters if you need more information. ;)

    It's funny that of all the threads I have made, this one has probably gotten the most reply's. And for those of you who chose B. Really, come on, b was just a joke choice, I didn't really think anyone would be dumb enough to pick B. I thought guys in this polk forum knew their blahs.
    I guess I'm just gonna have to go on the monster forum for good advice. B, you gotta be kidding me.
