Why I'm not adding a sub to my 2-way monitors for music

 

I've updated my blog post with more data, more analysis and the conclusion that in my particular case I do not need a subwoofer.  I encourage everyone who is on the fence about adding a subwoofer or not to read and comment.  I think that either way you'll be able to make more informed buying and configuration choices.

Everyone's situation is different but I hope the post helps you get to the right conclusions.

Agree on that. Do the same. Run front speakers (Salon 2’s) full range and adding a velo 15 dd+ to that. The velo goes a little deeper and gives more distortion free spl at lower freq. Gives the opportunity to easily adjust the support from the sub to the recording (or movie). Some recordings need and some music can take more bass. The best of two worlds and not so much talked about. All speakers eq’ed to the room with a combination of Dirac and Roon.
