My SO isn’t an audiophile so she doesn’t really understand what I’m saying. Honestly, it could just be a ‘me’ thing.

My speakers are full range IMO, and I can hear down into the 20hz range. But I don’t feel like I’m experiencing the music. I have been contemplating getting a subwoofer to have the impact to feel the low end instead of just hearing it.

Anyone else ever felt like this too? Or am I just over thinking it?

    My speakers go down to 50 Hz, but boy do I experience the music.

    I don’t think a sub is the answer here. If your system is not exciting without a sub, it is unlikely to excite you with a sub. A sub will just extend the bass, not change the overall sound.

    I would start with room acoustics/ positioning and if this doesn’t work then try swapping in different pieces of equipment to see if it makes a difference.
