just for the record, I like a lot of their stuff, but deftech's power & frequency ratings are completely full of shit. 20Hz out of a Prosub 800? No. Way. In. Hell.

Nice, what is the amp you're powering them with? You're probably right about that 8" sub not performing as low as 20Hz too. A friend of mine has a pair of the BP7006 bipolar supertowers - they sound incredible. I'm thinking of getting a pair, though possibly the BP7004s. A powered 10" sub in each tower... come to think of it, his towers with 8" subs can certainly handle a mean rumble with nothing but finesse. Think Sunn O)))

I'm looking to go 7.1 and have been eyeing this pioneer elite
But I've also heard good things about Harmon Kardon.
Anyone got any reccomendations or already own one? Thanks.
Man I really got to put you in touch with my dad on this one, all he does is play with the stock market and upgrade his giant living room system.

They're on a Pioneer Elite A-35R now. Awesome, considering it's only 200 bucks. High distortion, but it's got a ton of power and is 4 ohm stable, so that .3% doesn't even come close to having an impact at normal levels on a desk.
And some 8" subs can do 20Hz, but that Prosub 800 is an absolutely horrible piece of equipment. The day that a Prosub can match something like this is the day I chop my ears off.
