I'm happy with my Genelec 8351Bs that reproduce accurately down to 32 Hz with no subwoofer. Most of what I listen to, i.e. recordings of acoustical instruments and ancient 78 RPM records, isn't recorded below that, anyway, so I don't care. It would be nice to have one, but the amount of expense and trouble I'd have to go to to get something appropriate would be far disproportionate to the amount of enjoyment I'd get out of hearing the handful of recordings I listen to with crazy-low notes. I have better things to worry about.
Do you think you need a subwoofer?
Why almost any one needs subwoofers in their audio systems?
I talk with my audio friends about and each one give me different answers, from: I don't need it, to : I love that.
Some of you use subwoofers and many do in the speakers forum and everywhere.
The question is: why we need subwoofers ? or don't?
My experience tell me that this subwoofers subject is a critical point in the music/sound reproduction in home audio systems.
