I can not wait to see some vids from you and hear your opinion. The HD3 was one hell of a bang for the buck and these are louder and $100 cheaper so I do not see how anyone could not be happy with what you get for the price. Even at the $374 I paid per HD3 I feel was more than worth it. Even at $374 I do not think there are any subs on these subs level when it comes to price to loudness ratio, not to mention are do not sound bad either. AQ FTW!!
