Anyone use a sub with Reference 3A DaCapo i


Has anyone used a sub with their DaCapo i's? I'm not getting much low end, admittedly my room is very problematic. Roughly 10' by 25' with 81" ceilings (basement apt). Anyway I'm thinking of trying a sub.

Hi, I used a TBI Magellan VI with mine and they were a perfect match. There is a TBI magellan VIII on audiogon which is larger than the one I used but should be a good match also. I don't know the seller just saw them come up. These are some of the fastest subs I've heard and blend well with just about any speaker.
Hi, Put something under the stands or something between the speakers and the stands and see if raising the speakers makes a difference before buying new stands. You might be sitting in a null point, try moving your chair forward or backwards and see if your bass response improves.
Hi again, I forgot to mention that I had brass 1 inch cones between the speakers and the stands ( sound Anchor), I used three on each speaker two in front and one on back. The cones helped to tighten up the bass on my De Cappo's plus raised them up an inch. The stands were 26 inch so with the cones that put the speakers at 27 inch high. But again the best thing I did was add the TBI Magellin subs.
