[QUOTE="DrtySthV6SE, post: 8288706, member: 558214"] Its been many years since I've posted or even browsed around on this forum. The last time I posted I had an ED Nine.1 and 2, RE Audio components, and x2 Soundsplinter 12" RL-p setup. Now it seems that Elemental Designs and Soundsplinter are no more... am I getting old...
