sub+satellite or full range?


what are the advantages/disadvantages of full range speaker opposite to subwoofer + a good quality speaker? for example, a wilson WP against a pair of cubs + subwoofer.

Im asking because subwoofers are in almost all houses now and this maybe let us rise the WAF with smaller and less obtructive spakers without loosing quality?.
Thnaks in advance

i have both and i think the smaller the room, more the sub/sat setup and the bigger goes to full range. however full range single drivers often need a sub to fill out the bootom end, but can be used in almost near field listening to great effect.I would say that a dual use music/home theater requires more dynamics than single drivers generally do. for value...bang for the buck, i would go the sub/sat system if the room is not too large.
