I am just sitting here pondering my next move.
I run a pair of AR Hi-Res AR9's for my mains
and each tower has a 10" High Excursion Sub.
The towers are currently Bi-Wired but my
Onkyo TX-DS787 does not put out enough
Uuuuumph (100wpc) to take full advantage
of the 10" Subs (Which in the AR5 receive
175 watts of power from a Carver/Sunfire)
My dilemma is should I buy the Onkyo M208
2ch 100wpc WRAT Amp and run the LFE from
my 787 into the 208 and then to the subs
in the towers. Or should I buy a dedicated
12 or 15" powered sub.
For $300.00 I can have 2 10" subs capable of
sub 30Hz or for $400-600 I can have one sub
12 or 15" in size capable of 20 or so Hz....
Ohh decisions decisions decisions..........
I read in another post about tower owners not
wanting to "waste" thier built in subs by setting
them to "small" well I wouldn't have to waste any
thing if I Bi-Amp em...
