| Can I take American equipment to Europe? You may wish to look into whether your components are easy to convert. Some are. Many manufacturers with relatively low volumes use the same transformer across all models...and therefore converting voltage costs an engineer very little time to mov... | |
| Rel B3 or JL Audio F110 i have heard many great things about JL. I have heard REL and liked them...as with all the things the match is the key (in this case with your system, your speakers). Flexibility of crossover is important, and so is perceived speed of sub vs your ... | |
