Floorstanders or stand-mounted with a sub?

Trying to decide between some Dynaudio Focus speakers. With my budget, I either want to do a pair of Focus 110s on stands with a Rythmik sub, or just the Focus 220 floorstanding speakers by themselves.

In general, which setup is the best way to go for optimal sound quality?

Well there you have it. It only took 9 replies to go from a $3,500 speaker to a $30,000...
Sorry, couldn't help it :D

Having owned both standmounts and floorstanders, I personally think the better way to go is to buy a pair of floorstanding speakers which sound coherent and well balanced. I've seen a friend stuff around for years trying to integrate a sub with his main speakers and has arrived at a compromise even he admits is not perfect (and this guy was using a DEQX and laptop to measure room response). Just my 2 cents.

Buy a pair of Magico S5's and you wont need a sub, and integration of the drivers in terms of balance/coherence is perfect ;)
