It is the first time I use studio monitors with a sub. My previous experience is with logitech z4. So I by no means is able to tell if this one itself has better audio than an ADAM sub or some other alternative. But this one does have a remote that is quite unique and useful to dial in just the right sound you want at each given moment.
I got this sub for:
* Has a wired remote with both volume and sub (base) volume
* Acceptable price
* To go with my CR4.5 monitors
For me adding the sub to the mix is what took the setup from okay-ish to actually getting good. Both for separating the lows out of the CR4.5 speakers, but also for adding the precise volume+base knob that is included in this package.
The sub was quite much larger than I expected, so it may be wise to look on the size spec to get an idea just how large it is.
I advice to lookup some placement guides as I got much bouncy and nice audio when I placed the sub actually in near the wall and not just infront of my old z4 sub.
The knob itself has a better range of adjustment than I expected and allow for precise adjustments. It's build quality does however not fully reach the one of Logitech z4. It is by no means bad, but not as excellent.
Final verdict: If you want a sub and/or a knob to adjust the volume and base independently for tonal control, this is one of few options out there.
A side note: I Also got a FBQ800 V2 for further tonal control.
