I certainly understand that it is better to have a separate sub so you can place it optimally, and almost all good subs will blow away a floorstanding with built in subs. My question is to supplement my sub with towers with built ins.
I currently have a Cambridge Soundworks P1000 sub which I love. I also have CSW's largest satellite which has two 4" midrange drivers + one 1" tweeter. They blend nicely. I have the opportunity to purchase CSW's T300 Tower for only $600 which is normally a $1600 speaker. The T300 has the same two 4" midrange + one 1" tweeter MTM arrangement, but adds one passive and one active 10" subs to each tower.
I would obviously keep the P1000 sub. Do you think I would see huge gains from this new setup in midrange. I don't feel I need anything in the bass region and I would think the highs would be very similar with the same MTM arrangement. If the gains would be minimal, I would just keep my current setup; save $600 and have much smaller main speakers.
