No a very good idea. Btw we are lucky that our hearing in the bass is so very bad we can easily tolerate >1% of distortion there . very cool that the midrange has very good measurements :) thatÂ’s most important . Caveat it's not measured at very high SPL . But such a 2-way system can be improved with a subwoofer ! then the load in the bass would be lessened and you can go louder with less distorsion . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
