How Much Do Your Subwoofer(s) Cost Relative to Speakers

For people who own subwoofers in the main system, I am interested to know the price ratio of the subwoofer to speakers in your system. Prices in MSRP.

Say if the subwoofer(s) cost $10,000 and speakers cost $10,000, the ratio would be 1 : 1.

If the subs cost $5,000 and speakers cost $10,000, the ratio would be 1 : 2.

If the subs cost $3,333 and speakers cost $10,000, the ratio would be 1 : 3.

Mine is at about 1 : 3.5

About 1:1 at around $11K/pair each, which includes the price of their dedicated Sound Anchor stands.

I would rather know how well yours got set up.  Did you drop it in and forget about it?  Did you put in bass traps, does it come with EQ or did you use an external unit?

 

Also, if anyone is interested:

My speakers are Revel Ultima Studio 2’s, my subwoofers, are (2) Rythmik F12SE’s. They pair very well,sonically. So, I guess if you are using retail to retail….5:1.
As already mentioned, the Rythmiks are a disproportionate value. I like how they sound but someone else may not. This makes ratio measuring, meaningfully  murky.
