A subwoofer system properly setup is definitely better then just small monitors that are 3db down at 70hz.

Probably most home subwoofer systems are not setup properly and integrated
the way they should be.

The best advice I have read here is Ozzies

Run your loudspeakers full range straight out of your amp and run
the sub at the lowest setting it has..like 30hz or 40z

If you hear the sub all the time then its set to hot


If you hear the sub on human voice it is set to hot


You should only hear the sub on cannon shots/bomb explosions/etc
