    I think I just threw up a little bit.

    I'd pay $5-10 TOPS for those. Definitely not $150.

    I'm surprised he didn't do the "replace PR with real woofer" mod. Ya know...for "more bass".



    Slightly off topic...but I find it amazing that people can find the 7's to be lacking in bass. I've seen so many instances where people have replaced their 7's PR's with active woofers, and I don't get it. I've had my 7's hooked up in my main rig for the last few weeks, and they keep amazing me with how good their bass performance is. Obviously they're a bit lacking next to a full range speaker, but the 7's have some very prodigious bass output, given their design. I've never even remotely felt a desire to replace the PR's with active woofers.
