So, how do we feel about subs?
Subs are necessary for movies these days, because just about all the
soundtracks made since the nineties have used the LFE channel for something.
Maybe not for very much in the case of a typical romantic comedy, but
something.
Subs for music are problematic because integration becomes a problem. Charlie
Hayden does a run down the bass and the tone and position of his instrument
changes somewhere along the line. For music, I'd rather have restricted bass
than lumpy out of control bass. Your mileage may differ.

Scott, have you tried Sonarworks? It is the only thing that finally
integrated my sub. It looks a bit like tried-and-failed systems for
room equalization but is in fact totally different. It does its best
work in a room that is already good
