Hi, i need your help, guys. Right now i have 5.1 system, but i plan to upgrade it to 7.2. And i want stereo bass.
I was thinking about buying Denon AVR-X3600H AV Receiver. If i understand right it have 2 sub out, which you can equalize independently, but it will still be mono bass, right? Also i was wondering, since its pre amp have 12 channels can i use 2 channels for my needs? I do not need more than 7 speakers.
What i want is this:
FL,SL,RL=>LSUB
FR,SR,RR=>RSUB
C,LFE=>Both LSUB and RSUB
I will be using Windows PC as audio source. I'm using EqAPO to equalize + do crossover, i.e. redirect bass from 5 speakers to 1 sub. And i can easily redirect bass from 5 speakers to 2 subs, but this will take additional channel, which is meant for back speakers.
I'm basically asking about digital crossover hardware that wont take up additional channels. I can also redirect bass from all speakers to, say, front, so i just need a stereo configurable crossover, although, i think that it will be better if crossover could filter all channels.
So i want your advice about stereo bass and how to make it all work, will receiver be enough? Recommend me buy some digital crossover/processor? Maybe diy? Something else?
PS. I have only bookshelf speakers therefore they cant play bass and buying floorstanding is out of question because i do not have enough space. I was also thinking about passive crossovers, but they turned out to be quite expensive and they create some nulls in frequency response.
