I can only confirm this. The last few months I've been using a room equipped with 36 small Genelecs. Without a quite steep highpass or xover to subs it's fairly easy to drive them into producing a very dirty sound even at moderate levels. You *do* need subs with those, even if you don't want 'club sound'. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia.
