"So I added the Fathom to the mighty
Wilson MAXX 2 loudspeakers, crossing
the system over at 50Hz. In effect, the
Fathom replaced the Wilson’s bass below
50 cycles. This was a different kind of
torture test for a subwoofer; the MAXX 2
has an extraordinary bottom end in every
respect: dynamic coherence, transient
fidelity, extension, ability to play loudly
without strain, and resolution of bass
detail. Nonetheless, adding the Fathom
didn’t degrade the MAXX 2’s bottom end
and even extended the system’s response
in the very lowest registers (kick drum and
pipe organ territory). I was also able to
achieve a continuous transition between
the MAXX 2 and the Fathom; the bottomend
sounded “of a piece,” rather than as
if a weight were dragging down the rest
of the spectrum. I also ran the MAXX 2s
full-range, with the Fathom coming in at
30Hz with the steepest possible low-pass
roll-off (24dB/octave)."

It should be remembered that bass, especially low bass, is felt as a pressure wave. While the Maxx 2 certainly has state-of-the-art bass, the use of a subwoofer with a low pass point of 30-40 Hz will reinforce the Maxx 2 bass by pressurizing and de-pressurizing the room. I have a small room and used a JL Audio F113 sub with great effect even with my previous Watt Puppy 7's running full range.

My Maxx 2's aren't deficient in bass. I actually run them full-spectrum without any crossovers. The MX-5000 subwoofer also receives a full spectrum signal from my preamplifier (both channels) and I then use the cutoff on the sub to provide only 45 Hz and below, and also control the level by using the subwoofer amplifier gain.

I want another sub (matching) to place in the null along the front wall of the listening room, and will run the subs as a stereo pair, just to even out the bass throughout the room and to provide more energy to that lowest spectrum so it does has physical impact.

Yes, this is mostly needed for organ music, kick drums...etc. With this setup there is no wishing for any more of anything sonically, and the power hungry low frequency notes are well-represented with over 800 watts of power JUST to the lower 45 Hz frequencies, keeping them truly musical, taught-feeling and physically felt.

The gentleman with the complaints about the Maxx 2's with the 1201's needs to take a look at his front-end components and interconnects for the culprit. This system's faults (if it is a fault) is that it represents anything you put into it accurately....garbage in= garbage out, including poor recordings. Try a Lyra Titan i cartridge into a Manley Steelhead preamp into the 1201'a through some Jenna Dreamdancer cables....then tell us about the "lack of synergy" and no bass.

oh..i want to do the same too
