I find that speaking of subs is confusing in the context. If we talk about music (not movies) there is very little content at 20Hz, maybe the lowest organ note but not much. The F208 is a full range speaker so it should be able to play full range music without a sub, as a consequence I'd leave subs out of the equation. The R3 is a bookshelf and is not meant to be a full range speaker so bit of surprise here.
Also we are discussing this matter only because there is a huge difference between Harman measurements and ASR's (in bass response), I am not really sold on the fact that "Harman measurements are wrong" and also specs are wrong so would like to better understand. In the end we spend 50% of the time on this forum praising Harman/Revel stuff, the only that do blind tests, the only that publish official spins, the only baked by research and now all in a sudden they are just wrong?
