Maybe RELs really are good but from my own experience their customer service sucks. Phone calls never returned. Emails answered then told they'd get back to me but never do. Text messages back and forth promising me answers that I never get. A different mfg for me next time.
Will I benefit from a subwoofer with 20Hz speakers?
My source is a minidsp shd studio with Dirac going into Denafrips Gaia DDC to Denafrips T+ DAC to McIntosh 601 Monoblocks to Cabasse Pacific 3 speakers. The speaker's published frequency response is 41-20,000Hz. I presume this is achieved in an anechoic chamber. In my room however, it goes down to 20Hz, at least according to the Dirac measurements. In fact, I needed to flatten the curve and reduce by 5-20 DBs between 20-100Hz due to the room effect.
So, considering I already go down to 20Hz, is there anything else 1 or 2 subwoofers will do for my system? Would it create a more consistent low frequency field? I see many people adding up to 6 subs, so I wonder what I'm missing.
Thank you for your insight!
