Yowza!!!

Geez Larry, I'd be comfortable with just the 4312's!  Your point is
well taken, however-passive crossovers at the low end are a problem. 
In fact, I felt it was imperative to have a single driver for my
theremin (JBL D-150, 15" in a full-size phase-inversion cab) to avoid
crossover and phase distortion.  

Crossover distortion is not as big a problem with a synth signal.  I
can get away with a smaller amp (150 watt/side)for the mid/treble
system and I think that a subwoofer/400 watt amp/active crossover of
reasonable size would give me the bass I need for listening to the
synth.  I could use the two-way AR's as satellites and also put them
into service as nearfields.   I think Paul is using the Event 20/20
system with the subwoofer, as are others in the group.  How is this
arrangement working out in the typical studio?

Chub-this close to buying the big JBL's...
