Magnepan 10.1- any good w/out a subwoofer?


I'm in the process of buying the Maggie 10.1 for music and not for video purposes. I don't have any intentions of using it for video, hence, no need for a subwoofer - or do I still need one for music. I listen almost exclusively to acoustic jazz. Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.

Don't waste your money. I had a pair for 2 weeks. They are overpriced for thier performance. Either save a buck and get the SMG with a sub or the 12.1 and you shouldn't need a sub. The 10.1s also have such a narrow soundstage that if you are not positioned perfectly, then you just won't get the most out of them. You can't even share-the sweet spot is too small to have a friend over. Also, remember that as with most Maggies, more power is better. You better have at least 100 to 200 clean watts.
