What percentage of audiophiles use a sub ?

Although I have successfully integrated the Rel B-2 to Verity Fidelio Encore's (floor-standing 3-way) and Sonus Faber Auditor M's (2-way monitor), in my experience, subs integrate best with monitors. The best example I ever heard was the combination of Sonus Faber Guarneri Memento's and the Rel Stentor III. I love the Memento's and ended up buying them. As great as they are, the Stentor took them to another level, not just in the bass response as would be expected, but also and more importantly for me in terms of unexpected yet quite remarkable improvements in soundstaging/imaging.

And unfortunately for me and my $, I have the perfect spot in the Memento system room for a Stentor . . .

I wonder if I could sell my wife on the idea of a $6K end table for the Den?! ;->

Seriously though, when I made my speaker selection for my reference system, it came down to the Mementos and a Stentor, or the DeVore Fidelity Reference Silverbacks. I ended up choosing the Silverbacks, but it was not a particularly easy choice. The Stentor significantly narrowed the gap between the two speakers wrt soundstaging.
