## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do I need a subwoofer with these big towers?**
A: I'd describe the 8" down firing speakers as woofers, not subwoofers.  For music, you will likely not feel you need a sub, unless you're into a genre such as (C)rap.  For movies, I still like to augment the bass with my two 12" subs (and couch mounted bass kickers :-D ).

**Q: Is the price per speaker or pair?**
A: Per pair

**Q: Are there bass/treble adjustments that can be made with these? Just wanted to know before considering purchase.**
A: No. Have to make bass/treble adjustments with receiver or amplifier whichever you use. These are wonderful speakers.

**Q: Do these speakers require a amp?**
A: Yes, they are passive, so they need amplification from a receiver or amp.
