you can buy the biggest sub and the biggest speakers and if you put them in the wrong location in the room, you will not get the bass you are looking for. i have heard systems that when you sit down, there is no low end. when you stand up and stand behind the chair you just sat in, the bass was overwhelming. most of the rooms at RMAF had positioned their speakers many feet into the room and they still provided all the bass you would ever want plus the imaging and spaciousness that you get from pulling them out into the room.
Add a subwoofer to Von Schweikert 4Srs?
I'm currently using VS 4Srs after upgrading from 4 Jrs late last year. They are (finally) getting broken in and really singing. No complaints except I'm longing for a little more low end. I'll admit it...I'm a bassaholic but I don't like that home-theatre-low-rumble without a cause sound. Never owned a sub. Any recommendations (besides seeing a therapist)? The best woofer I have heard to date and would proud to have in my system was a Talon I herad at last October's RMAF. My appreciation in advance.
