Kal on sub integration and AntiMode

Kal has some interesting points I concur with, overall here. The sound quality of a well integrated sub, as well as the need to develop a good house curve are spot on. I disagree with his curve, but that's a personal matter. I'd also lift up the sub level from his, to give a better balance between movies and music, especially if he's crossing over so low.

You can achieve similar results if you know how with a miniDSP unit for far less, as well as take a partial route, adding the EQ to the sub alone. 

Personally I've never heard a Dspeaker product, so I have no opinion on the preamp itself. I just wanted to point out what exactly good subs sound like and why.
