the quote the guy made about going meridian .. if he has 10000 to 20000 $$ to get 5 to 7 channels of power why is he in this room .. outlaw is for us audio enthusiasts that want great products that we can buy without breaking us .. meridian is not even near the same class .. thats like comparing a nice camaro z28 that we could or at least i could afford .. to a lamborgini diablo .. you can still go fast and have fun in the z28 but you cant do it and pull up to a bunch of gawking yuppies .. just a working mans point of view .. outlaw has earned respect and customer service has been a big part of that ... oh and i ve known meridian sales reps .. mark up is sick ... how many traveling salesmen does outlaw have ??? overhead??? theyput the money in the product .. 5 year warranty .. match that ?? ATI but they are outlaws friends !!
