A good active subwoofer connected via RCA, set to roll off 5-10hz above the bottom end of smaller bookshelf speakers using the sub cross over, works wonders!

The in built EQ function saves hours fiddling with set up for you own room's dimensions and responses, and it really does free up your main speakers and unerpin the sound. One doesnt really notice it until you switch it off, when one senses the music loses weight, timbre and scale at the bottom end registers. Bass attack and decay (which some call 'speed') are also deeply impressive and adds to it's overall musicality and realism. Sub design and small physical size all belies the power of this little box of tricks. -- turbot fiend ------------------------------------------------------------------------ turbot fiend's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22691 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40177
