Do you think you need a subwoofer?


Why almost any one needs subwoofers in their audio systems?

I talk with my audio friends about and each one give me different answers, from: I don't need it, to : I love that.

Some of you use subwoofers and many do in the speakers forum and everywhere.

The question is: why we need subwoofers ? or don't?

My experience tell me that this subwoofers subject is a critical point in the music/sound reproduction in home audio systems.

What do you think?

Dear Eldartford: Please remember that those posts were posted years ago and in one of them you stated that 80Hz crossover frequency.
Thank you for the up-date.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Dear Gregadd: Its curious t, the Harman International research on subs that is named in your link is the same that I posted ( I'm only take a high-light on a 30+ white paer pages. If I remember that reference was posted by Scott. ).

Thank you Gregadd.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Rauliruegas...No doubt that I said that in the past. But I get smarter every year! Don't we all. It was really a great relief that I don't need to worry about finding the "golden" X/O frequency.
Dear Eldartford: +++++ " But I get smarter every year! " +++++

this was my first healthy laugh today, thank you for that !.

Regards and enjoy the music.
