[Shotimes] subwoofer replacement

[Steve Tatro]

Sounds like a great choice.  I tried 4-ohm and 8-ohm replacements when my
original sub went bye-bye.  Not because I expected them to work, just to see
what would happen.

Result (as most of you expect): sounded horrible.

I ended up getting an OEM replacement (thanks Al).
