Electrovoice 18" Woofer: smallish Magnet; only 2.3 ohms? rodman99999thanks for the clarifications.

I know Electro-Voice made mine, 16 ohm version... | |

Widow Needs Advice--Marantz AV 7005 you get less audience with local pickup only, which is whu it has taken so long to get an offer. I would tell buyer: let's split the difference come get it. | |

AVR: Internal 2 CHANNEL AUDIO MODE. OR: HT BYPASS (external equipment for 2 CH Sources) big_gregThanks for your personal experiences. I never heard a Peachtree.
