Polling MagnePan Users - Using a SubWoofer?


Got my 20.7's last year; awesome speakers and almost near perfect in every way...do wish that they had that last little bit of 'thump' in the midbass and bass...

Has anyone tried the big Paradigm sub-woofers, either the Sub 1 or Sub 2 with their 20's or 3.7's? Wondering how successful that pairing turned out to be?

I used to use a Vandy 2Wq with my Maggie SMG-A's and I thought it did an excellent job. When I replaced the SMG-A's with MG-12's, I felt that they did well enough that I sold the 2Wq.

It wasn't until I started experimenting with speaker placement that I realized the bass potential of the Maggies. Once I got them out away from the wall about 5 feet, everything came into focus and the bass was greatly improved. I would suggest you experiment with placement before you go the subwoofer route.
