Are Monitor/Subs More Room Flexible?

Vladimir, you say "Subwoofer integration has been practically non-existant for years". I take it you meant to say "integration problems" or some s

Bdarcus, you're right. I meant "problems", sorry for the botched grammar.

I do not disagree with Vladimir that Rel subs have had such an audiophile sonic response that their integration is never boomy nor gross...yet it is possible to create a small dip, Rel or not, depending on your Main speakers cross-over slope and Rel's.
I think the other thing is to know your room response and try both. My older audio room was a living nightmare for full-range speakers and I never managed to get it right, way too many nodes and stranding waves where speakers made sense. Monitors and sub were much better most of the time.
