rehan said he dint have much luck w/his larger vmps subs x'd over at 40hz-12db/octave. amazing he even got "close", as he says - 12 db/octave is much too shallow a slope for electrostatics - you need at least 24db/octave. the vmps are great subs - the best at anywhere near the price. i'd suggest their originals, not the larger, for a small room. also, they now have updated drivers, which will be even faster & tighter. also, don't get one, whichever brand you get, you need two for proper imaging & integration for 2-channel stereo.
Subwoofer for Magnepan 1.6?
I have a pair of Magnepan 1.6's on order and am thinking of adding a subwoofer. I'm going to set them up in a small room and my musical taste is skewed more toward vocals and chamber music rather than rock at high levels. I'd appreciate hearing of successes or failures in matching the two.
