You're actually making my point...properly installed cheap stuff can be better than poorly installed good stuff. From my first post:
Further, I think that install quality (integrity, placement, crossover choice, etc.) plays a much more significant role in sound quality than brand.
This is what's known as violent agreement.

But you're orignal argument was brand vs. brand. To make an accurate thesis, you need to keep all the variables the same, namely install. I don't think a single person on this forum would argue that properly installed off brand equipment could sound better than poorly installed high end equipment. It's not a fair debate if you start handicapping the said better brand. What's next..should we compare blown JL subs to brand new Pyramids?
