In Reply to: subwoofer with surrounds posted by dougS on February 16, 2003 at 19:17:01:
I'm using a pair of RTS-3s as surrounds right now. I think in general using a sub to add bass is not necessary. In an ideal world it would be great, as it would allow maximum optimization of the system(as Patrick Butler stated). However, placement of two subs can get quite tricky(the constructive and destructive interference in a room can be quite noticable). One sub is tricky enough for most people to place correctly. The bass response of the RTS-3s is a little thin, but I haven't found it necessary to augement. Money is better spent elsewhere(amps, front three speakers, power protection etc.).
