[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1525345, member: 555320"] While I like the article for the fact that it stresses the importance of having adequate midbass drivers to acheive the "impact" and "kick" most people enjoy.....I thoroughly disagree with their idea that they [I]must[/I] be in an enclosure, and that the enclosure size is unimportant. That's total hogwash ********, and frankly they need slapped for printing such assinine information. The enclosure (or lack thereof, as many midbass are designed to operate optimally in an infinite baffle setup) and enclosure size are of utmost importance to good performance. You [I]can not[/I] just stick any speaker in any enclosure and expect good results as they portrayed in that article. That said....have you full thought this through? You can't just "add" a midbass to any system. You need to be able to properly power it, you need to be able to properly limit it's bandwidth with a crossover, you need to have proper placement (as said..midbass shouldn't go behind it), etc etc. My advice; tell your friend to save up a little bit more and purchase an actual component set and a decent quality external amplifier to power them.
