[SurroundSound] Re: Surround Sound Receiver

All true everyone. I'm using the sub mainly for LFE channels. My mains
are: 36 Hz - 20 kHz ± 3dB . The REL seems perfect because it has
separate settings for LFE and for mains. It got great reviews as well.
For the mains I can just dial in the lows just under 36 Hz. Lokkerman
and Paul are correct, I have heard demos of some top of the line with
tremendous range. But alas, for now, I got what I got.
