Also, I have them on stands because the sound stage was low. I will definitely try the spl metering test to ensure the sub is optimized.

Thank you for the comprehensive information. This may sound as though I am greedy but with my sub turned on, I am really pleased. It is just if I turn the sub off, I feel like the heresy could do better, and my 50 watt amp is likely under powering..?? That being said, I would like to find the most synergistic upgrade for amplification. I did do the room crawl. As far as getting the phase right, I did it alone over the course of a few months LOL, a lot of trial and error but currently with the sub on, my set-up sounds fairly well blended on most music. The sub does not draw attention to itself on most music. The minute I turn the sub off, it is like what happened... Even the mids get thin.

Thank you

Thank you Gary, you are very helpful

I am driving my Heresy IV's with the PS Audio sprout. I am new to hifi and thought that would be a safe start. I am very pleased with the sound considering what it is but the bass is anemic and the midrange I think could be thicker but I think it is fairly detailed. What amps do you recommend for getting as much articulate bass as the Heresy's are capable of and more mid range than I am experiencing currently? I am currently using a Rythmik f12 sub but I feel that I am relying on the sub too much and I am looking for a more balanced bass.
