Studio Sub / Monitor Crossover & High Shelf

[dirty_bass]

ya i hear ya.. the 5 inch monitors just don't seem to cut it past like 50hz tho.. I guess i'll dig out the manuals.. U think a better way to go would be to just get something w/ a bigger cone? Event TR-8's or something like that..

Well, not necessarily a bigger cone, but a good low response.
Tr8`s do have a good rep, but it all depends.
What monitors are you using anyway?

Also I`m assuming you are working in dance music. Be aware that most club soundsystems don`t go below 50hz anyway.

You could always get the JBL's and the JBL sub.

As this sets up the sub level and cross over for you.

I havent got the sub myself yet, due to lack of room, but even the smaller JBL's give me a crystal bass response. Obviously its not in your face, but thats the whole point ;)

Im sure Dirty Bass will agree with the quality of the JBL's

Well yes I would agree.
The bass response on the JBL`s is fantastic. Those big ports seem to stop tuning problems and pressure resonance.
Pared with the subs I imagine it would be great for 5.1 work, but don`t see the point of using them for dance music monitoring.
I would just go with some big midfield monitors if super big bass is what you are after.
