I've been using sub/sat systems ever since I discovered the REL subs. Prior to this, I could always tell the sub was "there", and so couldn't live with them. But with the arrival of the RELs, and a select few others now, subs have gotten so good that IMO the sub/sat approach is superior to full range. It's not that the fundamental sound quality is higher than comparable full-range systems, but that the added flexibility in placement and bass tuning tends to make the sub/sat approach superior in most real-world rooms IF you are willing to spend the time to set it up right.
Your Experience with Sub/Monitor Combos
Please tell me about your experience using monitors and subwoofer combo's. 2 channel experiences.
Did you get things to sound right? Did it take forever and a day to set things up correctly?
Did it sound good/bad? Were you always left "wanting" for full range speakers and upgraded to these at some point in time?
Thinking about one of these setups, I know the basic pro/con's here, just wondering what the real end result was for users here.
Thanks
Marty
