Which way to go? Meridian 568.2 or Lexicon Mc-1 v4
Porsche - Your experience is (much) different than mine. The Lexicon that I heard was dog-butt awful on music. The new ones are better, but that's only because of the general concensus regarding the old ones.Samuel - I Agree with Porsche about the...
