Im planning to purchase an HTIB this Dec and Im still scouting which brand would be best to buy. While checking the specs of the subs that's included which each system, I noticed all of them are using passive type bass modules and most manufacturers equip them with small woofers maybe about 5 to 6 inches on average on those not so expensive models. Of course as we all know, small subs = poor and inadequate bass or LFE reproduction. I own a DQ-12 sub which Im using with my current setup. I connected my dvd player's sub out to a Y rca cable hooked up the other end to the line level L/R jacks on the DQ. There are available high power speaker inputs on the sub as well, a pair for input and another for the output.
If i do buy an HTIB, will i be able to use my DQ-12 to improve low frequency performance?
This is what i plan to do. The HTIB has no analog audio outputs so I will definitely use the sub speaker out single wire and split the other end to 2 pairs and connect it to the L/R speaker inputs on the DQ-12. Will this work?
Im thinking that the speaker out signal from the htib is just a pass-through for the DQ, so can I still use the supplied sub of the HTIB and hook it up instead to either the L or R speaker outs from the DQ-12 for added bass effect? I could place this one beneath the sofa.
Any feedback from you guys will be most appreciated =)
