Hi all. I want to extend the bottom of my floorstanding speakers with a new 12" diy subwoofer. Probably, the sub will be covering the 20-40Hz range.
Does it make sense to use a subtractive filter to align the delays in sub and speakers?
This setup will be used in the 9m2 office. Some time ago I tried different subs in my 40m2 living room but it always felt like the sub was way too slow compared to speakers. Was it indeed slower because of the delay in the low-pass filters or it was just triggering the low-freq modes of the room and causing more echo?

Subtractive Crossover Networks
Derived (or Subtractive) Crossovers - are they any good? Why aren't they used everywhere?
