While the idea that the gen 2s with a dedicated sub sounds nice, and
is decent, that sub is only 6" to start with. Also, there is no
control on the volume for the sub. So, if you were to look at
higher end setups, they are far superior to what the gen 2 provides.
Again, using my 95 as a basis for comparison, the sub in the Gen 2
just sounds wimpy but is adequate nevertheless. I just have to
remember to stay away from the 95 and not get too used to it!
