hello these are midfield monitors? serve to mix? frequency is 35 Hz-35kHz, I'll need a subwoofer with these monitors?

No I don't think you would as they give you a great feel to how your music would sound in a club at the same time being able to hear all frequencies clearly in order to mix efficiently..

hey mate, they are great for mixing. you will not need an extra sub as they hv inbuilt subs. infact the low end sounds fantastic on them.

U don't need a woofer with these monitors they cover all the low frequencies also

You won't need a subwoofer if you're going to use these speakers as studio monitors. They produce sound pressure levels well beyond that which will cause permanent hearing damage, and in particular, produce plenty of bass. Most importantly, they are very accurate and produce no obvious sonic coloration. Why would you want to adulterate their clarity with a subwoofer?

you can use any standard high quality speakers they will sound better if they are a matched set. the subwoofer output is unpowered so it needs to be a powered sub.

You will need a small mixer to control them that cost 50 bucks I use the Alto ZMX 52. There are other brands and you'll need the right cables to do it but do it! It sounds great and you have other channels for other devices. The Ultimate Support stands allow you to place the monitors at the optimum position. My main purpose was for my laptop but they have blossomed into my universal sound system.

this is a great monitor and you will not be disappointed by it's picture quality, but DONT USE the onboard speakers as they are junk in my opinion. Just bypass it and hook it up to some decent speakers. I recommend Bose speakers or if you want a little cheaper option buy a set of Boston Acoustics used BA-270 or 280 series from a reseller on this site or e bay. the new boston acoustics that they sell new are JUNK and sound like it. Wanna really rock go for the Bose it is well worth the extra dough.

I'm using them as front stereo speakers with a subwoofer in my living room. I use them for stereo music and we use them when watching movies. They should be plenty loud. You'll have to find the right balance with them if you are using a center channel. Otherwise they will work fine. I have these and an 8 inch Yamaha subwoofer and it fills the room with sound during music and movies.

These speakers have a great frequency range. They should do ok. To get strong midrange, you really need multiple small woofers(like these) I would suggest using this pair in conjunction with your current pair to get a stronger midrange frequency boost. Especially with a "very strong sub". Or purchasing towers with multiple small drivers. Just a suggestion. On a side note, speaker position in relation to seating position is very important, more so for 2 channel listening. Room acoustics are also a huge factor. Perhaps repositioning your speakers would help with this issue? Food for thought.... Happy listening ☺ These speakers have a great frequency range. They should do ok.

Based on the most technical of measurement tools, ie. SPL meter on my phone and frequency stepper on YouTube, I estimate right on 50Hz. Possibly as low as 45Hz but unlikely. I'll get back to you with a better idea in a few weeks when the sub arrives. Edit: after a long wait the sub arrived. It seems the optimum crossover for a sub is roughly 50hz. If you are looking for the crossover between the 8" subs and the horn tweeters then the answer is 2000hz.

Sorry but am not using a subwoofer. You may want to call sony support. they are very helpful.

Yes. They will work very well. This subwoofer is absolutely amazing. You will not be disappointed.

To be honest to say for sur I would like to know the frequency range before I would say for sure but these speakers sound absolutely great especially around the price range they are at. I have not found anything around this price range that has the sound clarity that these do. Their high frequency range is superb their low end is also good but to say for sure I would like to know the frequency your asking about.

Ideally all front speakers, Left, Center, Right should be the same for optimal performance. Using the OWM3 as left/right main would work, and probably sound OK. I disagree with a previous comment on deficient bass response, as the very low frequencies would be handled by the sub/LFE channel with a powered sub. I would select "small speakers" on your 7.1 reciever for the front speakers when setting up your system- this will send all lower frequencies(>120hz) to the sub channel.

Couple ways to answer this question. 1) you're already running through the amp/mixer - why use a powered subwoofer? You can run a subwoofer from the main unit at the appropriate frequency 2) if you insist on using a powered sub, then I would do what the others stated below, monitor output

Mine are working fine. They were easy to install and the sound is quite good. If you're expecting studio monitor quality, you will want to spend more money on a higher end system. If you're looking for good quality sound, you'll be satisfied.

no, these are are not designed for that purpose.What you need is a subwoofer for those monitors, they sell them relatively cheap and good quality. What size driver do you have in the monitors? thats really what determines what bass response you get from your monitors. The larger the driver the bigger the bass response ,smaller is less response. In my opinion its always better to have separates and small is ok if you have a sub. Hoped it helps...by the way the traps provide a way to lessen the build up of unwanted muddiness and reflection that makes your sound dark and muddy and just overall sound bad.

Frequency response is 85hz to 22kHz. There is no published graph or information for the crossover frequency. There is a crossover installed in these and most all multi-speaker units. I just installed these to replace cheaper Kenwoods. These produce down to 85 Hz bass and put out an excellent 91dB. The Kenwoods only covered down to 100Hz at 85 dB. Also the best way to install them is to use the DEI 050311 Boom Mat 4" Round Speaker Baffle behind them. They give much better bass response with the baffles installed. The mats are available in pairs right here on Amazon. You can use this link: DEI 050311 Boom Mat 4" Round Speaker Baffle - Pack of 2 Frequency response is 85hz to 22kHz.
