Rating a sound system.....

Given that the speaker combination in a sound system 'make'(?) the sound system, how does the Premium Sound system w/ DSP, but with its factory subwoofer replaced with the Essam Box, rate with you audiophiles? Would this rate at or near 'good+' sound listening quality or should the speaker combination be further modified?

Essam mentioned Bob Marley played well for him. "Back in Your Head", by Tegan and Sara is probably my deepest one. I want more! Post your suggestions.
Interesting! Being a Marley fan, myself, I did appreciate how Essam's Box(?) brought out the musical arrangements in other songs like BB King's, "The thrill is gone" - his 'Lucille' almost cries!, Alice Coltrane's, "Journey in Satchidananda", (talking about orchestration....!), then there are Santana and Isaac Hayes, among other ballads, that sound so much more 'rich' now, too! (Thank you - again - Essam!)
