re: Two channel audio/cd 'hi-fi' on a budget

I’m very sub-dumb. I have a pair of Dayton Sub-1500 that stay off unless I’ve got a movie on. My floorstanders in 2.0 (b&w 803 matrix) sound just like I want from a thumping upright bass to a low E to a shrill mandolin twanging off the tweeter. My subs are really mostly for LFE for movies which I watch very little of (thanks, tykes), and they’re good enough for me. If there’s a bass pocket or super bass spot in the room, it’s not where I sit.


That’s not to say that I couldn’t improve with a sub or get a better sub or enjoy music with a sub on, but my time devoted to the hobby is low right now.
