adding "slam" to 2-way speakers?


i'm hoping to add more slam / energy to my room (15*25*10) as my speakers are 2 ways w/ a 6.5" woofer (merlin vsm). the sound i get is wonderful, but i would like it to be more 'visceral' if possible. would adding a sub accomplish this? i realize that it would entail a 2x coverage of certain freqencies (from 80hz down), but if its seamless & it adds slam, sign me up! any experiences? any merlin owners out there w/ experience? thanks!

Rhyno before you lay down the long green, try this simple tweak. Insert the appropriate size vibrapods between your 2 way monitor and stands. This will give a noticeable increase in bass extension among other benefits. I have a second system with PSB 2 way monitors also with 6.5 woofer, although this may seem counter to your instincts, try it you will like the results, Sam
