Floorstanders or stand-mounted with a sub?

Trying to decide between some Dynaudio Focus speakers. With my budget, I either want to do a pair of Focus 110s on stands with a Rythmik sub, or just the Focus 220 floorstanding speakers by themselves.

In general, which setup is the best way to go for optimal sound quality?

Alderash -

start w/ a floorstander. As far as subwoofers go, buy REL.

Those of you that claim a stand mounted speakers is better with a sub can't be using a proper crossover. I fined the transition from large floor stander to sub to be much smoother and maintain dynamic impact better just above the sub frequency range.

Buy a pair of Magico S5's and you wont need a sub, and integration of the drivers in terms of balance/coherence is perfect ;)

Well there you have it. It only took 9 replies to go from a $3,500 speaker to a $30,000...
