We have had recent hot debates regarding the 990 compared to Anthem's/Lexicons/etc...

This is a very interesting comparison of the 990 to the AVM-20.

I highly suggest you to read and contribute your comparison findings on this thread.

That thread's starting to get kind of nasty, with one participant calling the Outlaw equipment "Chinese junk."

People get ridiculous about this stuff.

Glad to hear that Cliff . That guy apparently buys into the theory the more dollars spent the better it has to be .

The question you should ask yourself (relative to that guy George's post) is would I rather buy an overpriced piece of Canadian junk (to support some overpaid Canuck's beer and pretzel habit), or an inexpensive piece of Korean junk (to support some poor Korean keep himself in kimchee).

People were saying these sort of things about Japanese cars in the early 1970s until it became obvious that not only were Japanese cars not inferior in quality to vehicles made in North America, they were actually superior in quality and less expensive too!

I'm not saying that the Anthem doesn't make a fine piece of equipment, but running down Outlaw based upon it's being manufactured in the far east displays a bit of bigotry, don't you think?

Hey CJL1138,
I have been to McKinney, TX. Shopped a ski store there.

I used to have a lot of respect for Robert George but he flushed it all away with that comment. I think it is just a bit of insecurity that maybe the 990 is as good as the Anthem.
