After an apartment fire my whole place is burned to charcoal ... now I was, of course, looking at what is equally good, I had a Yamaha YST SW120 and since I was already impressed by this I wanted to stay with Yamaha! Then I had the SW700 in view. Price is first proud, especially since I work excessively season in Switzerland, I had to order him to me the media market here let what another 100 more were ... but I could not wait until I'm back in Dtl it. Meanwhile, I have the "cattle" already 4 months, it is simply sensational !! no comparison to my old Yamaha woofer. I run it with a new Pioneer vsx923 and a few boxes DDR (I still have no money for tower speaker, my good Kef C7're burned ... :( But just as the now going on already shagging whether music or BD .... madness !!!!! So Conclusion: Buy!
