The obvious answer is start with one and if that does the trick you’re done. If it doesn’t, then get a second. Many years ago I had a pair of MG2.6’s and one subwoofer worked wonderfully
Magnepan 20.7 and Subs
I've been reading about supplementing my Magnepan 20.7s with a sub, the general preference being REL. However in room I'm getting fairly deep bass with the 20.7's, so my sense is that I would put the crossover on the REL pretty low, probably at 30Hz, leaving only sub 30Hz material porting "also" to the sub to augment the natural deep bass of the Magnepans. I'm just wondering since there's precious little info in the 15hz to 25hz range, do I really need a PAIR of RELs, or could I get by with just one? And shouldn't that one be capable of going REALLY low, like the G1, or what's the point? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
