Greetings,
The subwoofer in my existing setup breaks down (probably not the exact proper word) during hard bass hits (like cannon and explosion sequences). I want to upgrade the subwoofer speaker itself to better handle these events. The subwoofer is an aging Optimus Pro SW-12 and it appears to have a dual voice coil speaker.
My spare A/V Receiver (Onkyo TX-SV50PRO) sits in a closet and is used solely to power the subwoofer, while my main A/V Receiver is an Onkyo TX-SR601. I am feeding a low-level signal from the TX-SR601 to the TX-SV50PRO.
The whole setup actually works pretty good for me. I only listen at moderate levels. If I could simply get the sub to respond without breaking down, I'd be happy. I have the money to buy anything I want, but I just hate throwing things away if they are still working sufficiently. I guess you could just call me "thrifty", lol.
I'd be grateful for any help in selecting a new subwoofer speaker and for assistance in wiring it up.
Thanks
