Opinion: I can't stand Advent speakers. They have a boomy bass and generally sound like garbage. Dave Seifert ihnp4!ihuxl!seifert --------------------------------------------------------------- I can't let this go by without comment. Both of the above were from separate articles by the author indicated and both are utter rubbish. I just didn't want someone in the market for speakers to be misled by such unjustified statements. decvax!utzoo!utcsrgv!newman Ken Newman
