Really, Dan? Focal for SPL? I'd do that woofer for SQ, but specifically as an sPL woofer? Seems a waste to me.

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."

I don't know, I heard one and it was more than ridiculous, but it sure is pricey. Just thought I'd put it out there posted_image

Memphis offers a three year warranty on their products, which sure is worth a lot with bass heads.
