Any significant upgrade from 8040BPM?

Hi everyone,

right now I am using an ADI-2 DAC FS together with two 8040BPM speakers. Are there any significant upgrades I could purchase, or is getting a subwoofer the way to go? And if the latter were to be the case should I just get something like a 7360 APM?

Thanks.

 
I upgraded 7350 -> 7360 and it might've been more flexible solution to buy a 2nd 7350. Depending on your room size and preferences on how much bass do you want, 2x 7350 with 8040/8340 is an option to consider.

Are there any significant upgrades I could purchase,
Acoustic treatment, probably the biggest upgrade to your sound system. What kind? Depends purely on the room and preferences on how your room should sound.

The 7360APM is a great sub which works really well with other Genelec monitors, both analog and DSP based. The best upgrade to get, by far :).

7350 with 8040
The 7350 doesn't have analog bass management, so not good with 8040b.

I see, thanks for your replies. I will try out the 7360APM then.
