Nah. Perhaps in the rare air that is ASR and its followers, but not in the real world.
Maybe it’s different for you, but for almost everyone I know, spanning from 25-65yrs old, there has been a drastic shift, going towards a bookshelf/monitor + sub setup as opposed to larger towers.
As a live sound professional, I cannot stress enough to my friends how crucial it is to get the sub integration correct. You plain and sinple, cannot get a subwoofer to work correctly without a high pass on the mains (and at a minimum, a form of time alignment).
The Denon also is not a 'preamplifier' at all
Well, IMO, it is somewhat of preamp, since it can take, route and sort analog inputs. In my eyes an integrated amp is just a preamp with a power amp section in the same box. But not getting into that argument right now. My main point that devices like these should offer at bare minimum, a 2 way crossover.
The Sabaj A30 can do it which is the step in the right direction for passive speaker users, IMO.
