Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Anyone compared Studio Monitor vs Floorstanders?

Yes.

Having a separate sub that I can put anywhere I want is a greater boon to system performance than trying to get sub frequencies out of floor standers in locations where they image best (which is not always where they would provide the flattest sub frequency response).

I am adamant that people who are adamant that subs don't "Blend well" with mains are just doing subs wrong but YMMV. I believe they are suffering from either visual psychoacoustics, sub frequency too high or sub crossover slope too shallow. Usually a combination of the three...

I've been doing sub-satellite for 10+ years and won't go back.

Sub integrates seamlessly. Those who can't see it don't even know it's there.

Cheers,
Presto
