ok how about this. I turn off the sub in the reciever. Now the reciever redirects the LFE to all the other speakers. I then connect speaker wire from the one main that is right beside the sub (just because it will be easy)to the high-level in on the sub. that way the sub gets the LFE track and all the other speakers do aswell. Please advise if this is a bad Idea. I realize that this might limit the LFE track to 20hz because it is going through the speaker wire but my sub sucks anyway and can't play past 35hz so that is not really a problem. Will doing this setup add distortion to my 5.0 speakers due to the extra bass coming from them. will it distort the midrange stuff?
