RE: You can get bass from a 8" sub and it may even blend better with a full range speaker

If it is the Paradigm that I liked to in my earlier post, that looks like a sophisticated sub. It has lots of power and a long through. The woofer looks very well engineered. While you can certainly pay more than the $825 it lists for, that is not chump-change IMO. I would expect it to perform well.

For my 10" subwoofer, which I can't remember the name of (thrift store purchase, the model used to be sold by Audio Advisor)I let the speakers roll off naturally and roll in the subwoofer under them, so I am crossing about 55Hz, give or take. There are no upper octaves coming out of my subwoofer.
