do you need a sub woofer with these speakers? null

The R-41SA is typically used as height or side/rear surround speakers. They are typically used in a set up that includes a subwoofer.

No, but it would add to the overall sound.

No, but I have these with a Klipsch powered sub and love it. If your front speakers are big enough to handle the low frequency you’ll be fine.

All depends on your setup and room size. If your using these speakers by themselves then yes. They don’t produce enough bass. These speakers are mainly used and designed for Atmos hight speaker setup when running a 5.1 or higher setup. If you want bass producing speakers I would stick with nothing smaller then a bookshelf speaker or some floor standing speakers with no less then a 6 1/2” drive. This would give you some good mid bass but if your looking for some deep bass I would definitely get a sub woofer.

These speakers are Dolby Atmos speakers designed to be used together with one pair of non Dolby Atmos main or satellite speakers in a surround system. If you're looking for a pair of main speakers similar in size to these you might want to check out a pair of Klipsch bookshelf speakers which, if you like bass, you'd want to use with a subwoofer. Technically you could use these with an amplifier with or without a subwoofer but they're not really designed for that.
