Ok i have an old skool setup!

1980Pioneer SA-540 amplifier running a pair of Pure Sat 4 speakers.

I have also a Pioneer 1979 SA-520 with is a two channel amp but has a subsonic filter on it 15hz!

i want to run my JBL GT3 in a low tuned 20hz box for movies so my question is because the Amp im using is full range i need to cross out the top end as my Sub son will allow me to play low.

Now bearing in mind the sub is 4 ohm and the Pioneer is 6 ohm min BUT ive run my Pures from it for over a year and there 4 ohm a pair of speakers!

Could sombody point me in the x over direction please, looking to have 50hz and below so wanna chop anything above 50-80hz out

Cheers.

Behringer offers simple 2way stereo/3way mono crossovers that will allow you to select the appropriate crossover frequency and slope. If you want something a little bit better quality and sounds a bit better, look for brands such as;

Mackie

Peavey

Alesis

Yamaha

They offer cheap crossovers that will not colour your sound quality too much at all.

Cheers,

Mick

This shall float your boat. You will be able to cross over your mid/high speakers to remove bass and increase headroom, while using the woofer out crossed nice and low to fill out your low frequencies and get rid of that HF 'beaming' you hear when running higher frequencies through a woofer.

what is the easiest way to add a sub woofer to your home stereo?

i basically have a cabinet that has my receiver,dvd player,xbox ect in it. i have a simple airbus home audio setup. i have two ceiling speakers, and the speakers that are on my plasma.

If your reciever has a subout preout buy a powered subwoofer and plug that up to it. Crutchfield has some and partsexpress.com also

Some people need a sympathetic pat... on the head...with my hammer
