Do you think you need a subwoofer?

Dear Stringreen: IMHO the subwoofers help to any audio system in many ways other than improve the low bass response.

Acoustic Science Corp (makers of Tube Traps) also recommends getting the subwoofer(s) up off of the floor (18" to 21") using their Subtrap.

My VMPS Larger Subwoofer is 21" off of the floor and it sounds much better with a tighter response.

Dear Eldartford: Well your set up is very special. I'm refer to a more normal subwoofers set up.

Maybe my subwooferes could perform better at 40 inches above the floor but I can't do that.

My subject is that given a little more " space/height " to the subwoofers makes a remarkable difference in the quality sound reproduction of the whole audio system, at least that was/is what I'm experienced about with only 3 more inches ( total eight is 5" not 4" like I posted. Well 16" woofer-center from the floor. ).

Regards and enjoy the music.

Dear Rgordonpf: I think that you can/could achieve a very good quality sound improvement on your audio system with the addition of a second subwoofer connected in true stereo way.
Take a look/read to the link on my last post to Stringreen.

Dear Tbg: +++++ " I stopped suspending my speakers when I bought the 350 pound per side Duntech Sovereigns. " +++++

I think now you can do it again with your Acapella's !!!!
