Hi all,
New here / first post. I have a set of bookshelf speakers, and say it is rated to play down to 60Hz. And then a Sub (say the SVS SB1000 Pro), which has line level input and output and speaker level input.
And i have a DAC that will give me RCA output. I don't have an amp yet.
I see many ways of connection it, but I don't really know what makes the most sense.
1) I can have a 2.1 amp, then connect the DAC -> 2.1 amp. And the sub out goes to the sub, and speaker wire to the speakers.
2) I can have a 2.0 amp, then connect the DAC -> line level input of Sub -> line level output of Sub -> 2.0 amp -> speaker.
3) another alternative with the 2.0 amp is to use the speaker level input. Dac -> 2.0 amp -> speakers + speaker level input in sub
Why would someone choose one option over the other? The sub has a way of setting a LPF, but the amp doesn't.
thanks
Alex
