Frank,

I always liked the PM-3 as a home monitor. The subwoofer has nice low-
end punch to it. I've never heard the PM-1, but I doubt that you'll 
get much bass response from a 60 watt two-way speaker. I'm afraid that 
anything incapable of achieving some volume isn't going to give you 
much low end either. You'll often see the PM-1 pictured with a Roland 
handsonic component; such is probably its rightful jurisdiction. 

I'm currently testing the Bose PAS system for use with e-drums. Bose 
specs its subwoofer (my review sample has two) as going down to 40 Hz, 
which is pretty accurate. I measure it as rolling off considerably at 
31.5 Hz or so and losing any usefulness by 25 Hz. At even 40 Hz, 
however, a considerable degree of power and size is necessary--more 
than 100 watts, at least, depending on design variables. The Bose 
would be overkill for many people who mainly play at home, especially 
at a price of $2000. But any keyboard amp used for e-drums should go 
down to at least 40 Hz to do kick drums and toms justice. People have 
had good success apparently with the Behringer keyboard amps, which 
are relatively inexpensive. Check the archives under "Behringer" for 
some testimonials.
