Subjective question I appreciate however does need to be met with objectivity I'm thinking;
Stereo speaker set ups, standards A/V set with no sub , yep and I can see and understand the "conventional@ kit, but what of the .1............the sub?
How low do they need to go, I am pursuing replacing my noble Storm as readers will know but recent reviews and articles in WHF (last 2 month's editions) have started me thinking;
How low does a sub need to go?
Does Sound Pressure Levels and Room Pressure Levels have any bearing on performance?
Downward firing, forward firing, sealed units all have issues apparently?
What of "speed and agility" of the sub, I understand it (I think) ut where is it's place with movies?
Is it headroom or necessity that a sub can retrieve 20Hz +- 3dB or 17Hz +-6dB?
How low do music and movie soundtracks go to.............then do you need headroom (lower frequency in this case I guess) to achieve the lowest bass notes
Does the spend on a sub equate in any way to the rest of the system (i.e surround sound speakers say £1,500 then sub spend should £750 etc etc)?
Enlightenment please, and possible recommendations for the "perfect" sub at under £1,000.00
Thanks
