Sabrina X Anyone Add Subwoofer(s)

I've added the S/812 to my SabrinaX driven by the Gryphon Diablo 300 and as another user said, it just adds so much more than bass. I think the changes in soundstage are the most satisfying ones. Any speaker in any price range can benefit from that, given that the room has proper treatment / measurement / acoustics.

 By the way I am letting my pair of SabrinasX go, less than 1 year old. If anyone is interested, here's the link.

That begs the question, what speakers will take their place?

I’m replacing them by the Magico S5 mkii

I went to the dealer to listen to the Rossini DAC to add to my system and ended up getting the speakers I demoed the DAC with.

The Sabrina is a great speaker, but the soundstage and imaging of the Magico is off the charts. It’s almost double the price but the Mágicos “disappear” way better than Wilsons I think and that’s what I am looking for at the moment.

Great choice..let us know how your new toys workout in your system...

I’ve been listening to the Sabrina Xs and two s/812s. I tried many combinations and discovered that I must keep the crossover at 20-25 and REL volume low, or the Sabrina Xs lose some of their clarity. That said, the RELs improve many recordings. With some recordings, such as the Analog Productions 45RPM reissue of the Door’s L.A. Woman , they transform the music.
