Since every system needs subwoofers, kudos to Sigberg for actually addressing this with an actual "satellite plus subwoofer system."
Since the advent of subwoofers, bookshelves/standmount speakers should never bother to address frequencies <80 Hz, which small drivers can't handle very well at higher SPLs. Roll off quickly below 80-100 Hz and the 'satellite' all of a sudden can handle more power before distortion sets in.
I've never understood the obsession with the low frequency response of small speakers on this site. It doesn't matter if they have bass below ~80 Hz. Leave that to the subwoofer(s). Miller & Kreisel (M&K) promoted this >40 years ago.
Since the Sigbergs are not 'small' satellites, this system must sound absolutely explosive when cranked. Would love to hear some day.
