No, sorry, Bro Anthem, a serious bass hound like me runs a FF5 sub with the Triton 2s!!!!!
I would have to say, if you really need bass, then GEt makes just the right speakers for you, with a built in sub, the Ones, 2s or 3s.
Now I got two pairs of T 7s, so I am not throwing off on them, they are wonderful and full range and satisfying for what I play on them, and probably totally satisfying for MOST people all around. The T 5s sound like they will be a nice move forward on the T 7s as well.
But if you really want deep bass, life you like your rock and roll to "rock" and you like full powerful orchestra music, an organ pedal note to kick off you "Also Sprach Zarathustra" and rattle the windows, your listening seat and hit you in the chest a little at the same, you are gonna need a SUB.
If you want to watch movies and really get what is in the LFE track, the ".1" of the track, and really get the most out of your movies, you must have a SUB.
In conclusion, I really think the T 7s with a sub are fantastic. Totally great speakers without the sub, and for more rock with your roll, or for movies, add in the FF5 sub.
I hope this helps,
Happy listening and tell us what all you guys decide and how it works out,
God Bless,
Wayne
