Re: Best sub design to go with maggies?


With those Maggies I would do 2 8 or 10 inch sealed subs for fast snappy bass with music down to 30HZ or so and add a larger unit or 2 for the deep HT bass down to 20HZ or below, if you are going to do as few as possible you really need to take a close hard look at sealed subs so you can both get the fast bass for music and deep punch for bombs and thunder in movies. If you have the money and decide not to build the Vandersteen subs blend awesome with Maggies. I auditioned a set of Magnepan 1.6 with Vandersteen subs and they sounded very close to a Maggie 3.6 with a fuller bottom end.
