    HK 325/525 adding 2nd sub

    Thanks, I was told on another thread that a splitter would lower the signal to each sub, and volume would be lost. Will the loss be significant, or will I still hear and feel the effects of a 2nd sub? Would I be better off buying one bigger sub and using it alone? Thanks Hank
