[QUOTE="Rob Timmerman, post: 217481, member: 172"] Despite what many people think, it _is_ possible to get a decent rock mix on a rig with no subs. You will, however, need to think a bit more about how you manage the mix. Things like a HPF on the kick (take the thump up an octave, a bit more click), and letting the harmonics of the bass guitar do the heavy lifting can help significantly. And most tops go down to perhaps 70hz (even the little ones), which is plenty deep for rock even if you'd prefer the ability to go deeper. But if you want to bring in more sub, a pair of good double 18s will be more than you need in pretty much every 250 cap room I've worked in. [/QUOTE]
