Hey everyone,
I'm wondering how to integrate the L2-SUB with some 21L2 floorstanders. The 2.1 setup will be used mostly for music and probably 30% for films.
I like the idea of the sub for both music and films but I don't really know what crossover point would be best as the whole point the the floorstanders is that they can do most of the bass...
If the sub was set to high- it would probably be better just getting some standmounts (which I would rather not do because I would have to buy the right stands and I really prefer the look of floorstanders etc.)
Quad claim the 21L2 (£700) can go down to about 35Hz at -6dB. So what would you estimate the lowest point at 0dB to be? I would set the sub to that frequency and of course integrate the volumes etc properly.
OR...(please read on.)
Would the 22L2 (£900)(with a separate 6.5" bass driver which the crossover is set at 150Hz, which Quad claim can go to 30Hz at -6dB), be able to produce substantial bass for normal music listening and movie LFE sound effects? I know its all different opinions, but thats what I want to compare.
Of course I will get a few audition organized sooner or later, but I'd like a few of your opinions first
