i am auditioning sub-woofers for a new set up, and have read some glowing reviews of the Episodes. The rep at Best Buy (the Magnolia side of the house) confirmed the quality compared to the other choices under consideration. I live near Columbia, MD (between Baltimore and Washington,DC. The only person I've found so far who has these is out in Purcellville, VA, about a 1-1/2 hour drive. Is anyone aware of somewhere closer where I might be able to listen to them prior to purchase? Thanks ...
