I've never used their subs but I have built a full-range system using their coaxial professional drivers. Very disappointing performance from this Thai company, and not really listenable. We ended up trashing the P-Audio drivers and replacing them with similar units from Eminence, which sounded great. ------------- Support the12volt.com

I too spend THOUSANDS of somebody elses money (thankfully) while building a theater for them, in Guadalupe, California. They sounded like garbage to me, (AND to the guy that spent the money) but the clientelle loved the sound... Nice and SCREAMING bright, with bloated, furry bass... Sounded like Bose!
Not a fan. Look elsewhere. Not TERRIBLY expensive, but overpriced for what you are getting, for sure.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

The P-audio samples I had sounded like ass. No amount of EQ helped. Everything sounded either dull or screaming, nothing in between. Too many other names to choose from. Eminence makes some great drivers for the money!
