I have a quick opinion question on how people would set-up their system and utilize the high pass filter in their sub for good system integration.
My Setup:
Passive Speakers: (Currently Kef Q150s, but I am considering upgrading to the ELAC DBR-62s in the future)
Subwoofer: SB-2000
DAC: SMSL SU-8S
The next piece I plan on upgrading in the chain is a Stereo Amplifier to replace the Yamaha R-N602 in my setup (far too big, though performs adimirably).
I currently am doing the following:
USB (PC) --> DAC --> RCA to Sub (for the high pass filter) --> RCA to Yamaha via line in --> Speakers
All of the amplifiers I am considering seem to be XLR only, and I do want to keep the highpass filter from the sub.
I realize I can just get RCA to XLR cables to go from the sub to a Purifi or Hypex model (XLR only devices - I am currently eyeing a DIY Nilai500 when it comes out), but I can't help but wonder if there is a more elegant solution (perhaps involving a pre-amp, though admittedly I don't exactly know how the pre-amp would fit in this whole setup if at all).
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
