Bass amplification is more demanding then your Jolida is qualified to handle. If your preampsection has dual outs you're in business. If not AA sells Monster adapters so you can run a second pair of interconnects to an active sub. SV Subs makes some fantastic products at reasonable prices.
Best efficient, passive sub - Any suggestions?
I am looking for a passive subwoofer that will work well in a midsize room on 75 watts. I just purchased a Jolida integrated amp and discovered it has 3 channels and I may be putting together a system for my family room based on the Jolida and a pair of Soliloquy SAT 5s (depending on whether or not my auction receives any bids). The Jolida 1703 is a hybrid with a tube preamp section and 3 channels delivering 75 watts each. The SAT 5s are 2 way monitors with a 1" dome tweeter and a 5 1/4" woofer. I am probably looking for something small as I only have 75 watts and am not concerned with rattling the walls - just something to fill out the lower octaves. Anything with a built-in crossover would be a plus (or any suggestions for an inexpensive outboard crossover would be helpful). I listen to all sorts of music and this system will very likely be exposed to Barney, the Wiggles (responsible for possibly the most annoying songs ever recorded), and Disney cassettes belonging to my 3 year old daughter. Thanks for any suggestions.
