Floorstanders without Sub vs. Bookshelves with Sub?

[drkrack]

May I know the reason?

They're quite underrated subwoofers, but the Slam is pretty good. If you can get out of the Marketing gimmicks like how low Hz wise a sub can get & you hear them in person, you'll understand. They have very likable sound signature in my experience. Their Tonality is good, especially for foot tapping Bollywood numbers.

I could experience The most discussed "trouser flap" was only with twin Klipsch 12" subwoofers.

I did hear the Klipsch 12" subwoofers today and agree with you. Very good. The SPL series woofers are a different level. Found the entry-level R-100SW to be good but not great, after hearing the 12 inch subs

Hello everyone,

I've bit the bullet and have placed an order for 3050i floorstanders. And I've gotten a good deal for a used BIC 12" subwoofer on OLX.
Now awaiting my speakers to setup my 5.1

Cannot thank each of you enough for all your inputs.

Congrats on your purchase. A small advise though, thread with caution regarding sub purchase from olx. Don't do any money transfer unless you see and hear the product. All the best.
