My system includes two large Yamaha NS-777 towers with dual 8" woofers. The specs say they can play down to 30hz. I use an Onkyo 807 receiver and have the crossover set for 40hz for the front mains. I do like to listen to a lot of music and these towers never fail at providing sufficient bass. I had a older Velodyne CT-100 150 watt ported sub that didn't gain me much bass and I believe it couldn't keep up so I sold it.
I've read that for large towers like mine to use the sub low pass crossover for 40hz and use the towers from 40-20,000khz. How important is having a musical sub if my towers are doing their job at 40+Hz?
Subs on my radar:
Emotiva Ultra 10 $289
Bic PL-200 $270
Lava LSP-12 $287
Emotiva Ultra 12 $360 (Potential Sale Price)
HSU STF-2 $360
IMPORTANT?: I do plan to add a second matching sub in about a years time.
I split my listening time around 30% Music, 30% Games, 30% Blu-ray or HD cable Concerts or Movies.
Thanks
