i ges basta dghan na siya ma offer nmu bro, pick the best lg, advice sad, look at the subwoofer if ang cone okay ba, den tan-awa if naa pa ba sticker sa company that made it, if it is intact still it means that it has never been rewind, watsoever, and check the RMs or ang watts, den always ipa test jud,.,
