Yes and you can buy some special speaker Taibo CDs from me. You should also buy my special speaker Taibo cables. Serious: What is a notch on a car hifi bass potentiometer? If speakers should suffer that easy under "audio load" they are not good speakers, even if the sound should be better now, next time it will be broken. Do you hear music much too loud with extra much too loud subwoofers? Take care not to damage you ears. You can buy new speakers and a new windshield if the bass damage them, but you can't repair your ears. - Ralf _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
