Tukan VS Legacy studio

If you have a small room, you probably don't need a sub. But for a large room, a sub is the only way you can have flat in room response to 20 Hz and below...As long as the phase is continuously variable, there's no problem augmenting a good one with the main speakers (even if they're "full" range).

...isn't "augmenting" the wrong way, of using "sub"? Even R Harley, in his "Guide..." recommends, in the case that ...you should use SUB (true "audiophiles" don't use sub...?)use your monitors as a "satelites" freeing them from lowest frq.?(high pass...)

Some speakers were design to do that"augmenting, the small speakers from Alon , my Maggies sound better that way, they didn`t sound smooth in the transition between the sub and the Maggies when I used the crossover,they sounded better letting the Maggies go full range and bring the sub in around 40hz or so.Its all a matter of taste.
