Not sure what to do. There is an annoying discontinuity between my front Vantage and my surround speakers.

My diy surround speakers ( 4" seas and planar tweeters) can't reproduce any bass.

Replace my diy inwall surround speakers with Passage.

or

Add a sub to handle the surround speakers bass frequencies.

Hello,
If you are not currently using a Subwoofer, I would add a Subwoofer. You can find a used Depth for between 900-1100 Dollars usually on Audiogon. The "i" Version usually goes for around 12-1500 Dollars, but there is not a huge difference between the original and i Model. Primarily cosmetic and 50 watts more power in the Depth i.

The Grotto is quite nice as well and the Descent is awesome. Especially the Descent i Model which went from a single 400 WPC Amplifier in the Descent to (3) 250 Watt Amplifiers. The Depth and Descent use 3 Woofers (10" Descent/8" Depth) while the Grotto uses a single 10" Woofer. The Woofer in the Grotto is the same as in the Descent. All Models are Servo Controlled and Sealed.
Cheers,
JJ
 
I will look for a sub ( the passage or it's replacement will have to wait for a few months).

The depth ( i or not) is very tempting and I think it would be a visually great match with my vantage.


The descent is also on my wish list ( but not has WAF friendly as the depth).

There are also the jl audio subs f110 and f112.

A small, powerful, able to go low, and visually appealing sub. That's what I'm looking for.
