Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Dipole bass depends critically on setup:

the room, the speaker placement, the equipment support, and the presence or absence of RF noise in the upstream equipment.

I've had my MG-20s since 1994, and continue to find better extension and more articulation as I remove RF noise from my setup.

You have to decide whether you want room pressurization or bass articulation (the ability to distinguish the individual strings in a piano, for example). Monopole bass can be appealing in terms of shaking things, but it is more difficult to achieve full articulation with it. It is also harder on the neighbors if you live in an apartment building or condo.
