Active Subs - Mackie or Behringer?

Archived from groups: rec.audio.pro (More info?)

I am looking to add some subs to the SRM450s that I own. Is there any
Behringer (or other brand) subs that can compete with the Mackies?

I would like the quality of the components to be comparable to those in the
mackie subs, to complement the SRM 450s, and end up with a system that has a
nice flat response. I am more interested in tight, well defined bass ...
not just loud and vibrating teeth. Sorry, I'm not a sound guy. So, thats
the best I can do to describe it. I am interested in quality components at
a reasonable price ... less the retail.

Thanks

Exactly! Can you get that with a sub/satellite rig ... any sub/satellite
rig ? Or am I wasting my time?
