Posted March 7, 200619 yr Admin just read up on the PG site and the Xenons are discontinued, and so goes the XeLoad with the flexiable 1-4ohm stability with similar output,suprised they are going this way, seems as if the Xenon was the step between the Titanium and the Tantrum, and now they are dropping it, so the new Rsd line is taking the place of the Xenon and none are ratted to be 1 ohm stable, what is going on, PG has always been a company with a top end line to aspire to have, now I am not so sure and this goes for the subs and components too, are they down grading to stay afloat and jumping on the F&F bandwagon?
March 7, 200619 yr aww well, the xenon chit was ugly anyway...lol...but i do miss my m50 and xs2500....wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
March 7, 200619 yr Though not pretty, the more I gander at those RS amplifiers the slightly less ugly they become.
March 7, 200619 yr I actually kinda like them. AS for the subs, I have heard from some dealers that they actually have a driver a step above the regular RSD. It'c the RSD Pro I believe. Anyways, I've heard quite a bit of hype about this driver, but I also did the Titanium Elites, but never saw many or heard about them. Overall, there seems to be such a small niche market for highend gear and it seems to be well covered. I think the major manufacturers are starting to cater more towards the "average purchaser" than the die-hard enthusiast.
March 8, 200619 yr Author Admin so are we guessing that the Rsd is their main line? with the Octane staying on as the entry?(I asked same thing on soundbuggy so we will see)

I'm not holding my breath.
March 10, 200619 yr so are we guessing that the Rsd is their main line? with the Octane staying on as the entry?(I asked same thing on soundbuggy so we will see) They have a line coming out called the Ryval.Not sure how that fits into the grand scheme of things though.
March 10, 200619 yr They still don't have anything that would make me want to upgrade my Tantrum pair
March 10, 200619 yr attractive but have not seen or heard anything about itThere was some BS about it in the CES thread over on soundbuggy. Supposed to be the most linear and best sounding subwoofer ever produced by PG, one of the most efficient subwoofers on the market (Hoffman's Iron Law, anyone?), a dream for both SQphiles and bassheads alike, yadda yadda yadda. Typical promotional "best thing since sliced bread" type of comments.
March 10, 200619 yr Author Admin thats why I just need to buy an RL-s put an AX2000 on it, seal it and call it a day
