AJ, Most of the subs I'm aware of are self powered, and use only a line-level input for their signal.
There is no question in my mind however, that your budget buys a LOT more performance with a satellite/sub arrangement than you'd get for the same dollars from a "tower" speaker. Plenty of great options out there, and I would think that with you being in the Detroit area you should have little difficulty finding dealers at which to audition some of the products that are available. -- Curt962 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Curt962's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31949 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76284 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
