full range or mini's and a sub


Guys I'm not the most seasoned audiophile so I'm sorry if this is a stupid question.  However, here it goes...  I have heard many audiophiles talk about the magic of mini-monitors and their ability to disappear and soundstage.  Many say that it is very difficult to get the same advantages with full-range speakers.  Still most reference systems seem to be built around full range speakers.  If there is a true magic to mini-monitors why don't I see more reference systems with mini-monitors and subs for the lows?

My advice is define what you'd like and your constraints including space, budget and such.

My goal is to enjoy music and one of my compromises is no sub - and my space does allow a full range speaker.  Listen to as many different systems as you can to see what you like, don't like and potential options.
