    Your a star!!

    I had PM'd Isaac, but i assume he is having an xmas break.

    I did it by being a muppet with the aid of some sloe gin (never again), things got a tad loud on xmas day.
    Tho i am surprised it was a woofer and not a tweeter, i hope theres nothing more sinister going on...

    Dont know yet, not even sure i will.
    I just fancy something with a bit more grunt low down.
    Tone's ospreys are tempting, but not sure they would be good in my room.
    Maybe Shearwaters if i can find any.
