Towers with built in subs vs separate subs
I debating on upgrading my paradigm founders 100f speakers to 120H speakers as they have built in subs and my space is limited. I would love to incorporateca a rel s510 but im concerned that i may not get my moneys worth out of it because placement is very limited. I own rel ht1205 which i am very happy with for movies but i want something better for music. Plan is to remote my 1205 to the back of the room for movies and either trade up for the 120H paradigm with built in subs or add a s510 to my current paradigm 100 f's.
Any thoughts?
The 120H speakers do have a port on them to use anthems room correction system which is supposed to be preatty good. I understand the benefits of separate subs but given very limited options as to placement and the built in room correction of the 120s, the built ins are probably the way to go. I think Anthem/founders is having a sale right now too and I just bought the mrx740 avr which comes with the room correction stuff. Thanks all for the help. Now to pitch it to the wife....wish me luck

Man, new AVR and now you’re pitching new speakers AND room treatments? If you pull this off you either married extremely well or you’re my hero! Best of luck with all this 🤞🤞🤞. |

@ditusa , That is not the case at all. For subwoofers to perform their best they need to be in multiples and positioned differently than the main speakers. Subwoofers can be integrated perfectly with appropriate time, phase and amplitude management. All done perfectly with digital bass management. What more effective than an analog crossover. |
