Sonus Faber Cremona to PMC OB1i
I like my Cremona's but the the bass is kinda lacking. The Cremona requires finicky set-up which my room does not allow. I understand with the PMC Transmission line you can put these close to the wall without problem

If you really need additional bass, add a small sub to your Cremona's. Jim |

A lot of PMC owners are still using a sub as well.

The Cremona measured frequency response only goes down to 32Hz. On the other hand, the Amati Homage Anniversario goes down to 24hz. I heard the Anniversario with Ayre monos in a large open space and it is beautiful sounding $27K speakers.
Definitely, the PMC OB1i, PB1i etc will have better bass extension. |

Even though I run a PS112 with my OB1i, I really can't tell when the sub is on or off. This is consistent with what Peter Thomas told me when I was considering the OB1i. As a matter of fact, he suggesteed that I not use a sub.

Peter Thomas! Mr. PMC himself! Can't argue with that advise. Especially considering PMC sells subs.

I didn't get a Sub because my OB1's were lacking base. I got it, well,..... because I just wanted it. I wanted to replace a JBL sub I had and really didn't like.

Every system will see an improvement with a JL... I will say that life will be improved with a JL... That said, the OB1i has a reputable edge in the bass register against it's competition... I would definitely heed Mr. Thomas' words of wisdom, he knows a thing or two about HiFi! ... A demo never hurt.
