Opinions before purchasing

A room that size, all you need is SONOS Bar on wall and SONOS Sub. Why clutter the space with bulky speakers/electronics. I have been using a SONOS soundbar / sub (3.1) for 10 plus years in a similar space for movies and music. Never felt the need to upgrade or anything else. Sonos Truplay software optimizes the sound to the nth degree. A well integrated sub makes all the difference, bass to music is like meat on the bones. Once you got it dialed in you won’t be able localize the bass.

SONOS is not cheap but everything else in their price range or lower pales in comparison.

Subs can never achieve this (even expensive ones such REL since drivers are too slowly).

@kiterlux what does ^this^ mean?

>this< means: ....achieve

1st: the bass reproduction a 2nd and eventually (as I have it) 3rd pair of speakers only can do...and

2nd: bass reproduction in time/in line with the stereo pair

both in conjunction with the processor Denon S760H.

This 2nd bass reproduction system is mainly for music, not for HT. But you can use it as well for it. Brings in both cases the beef to the sound.

You need to manage that 2nd bass reproduction system entirely by center channel signal which needs to be send by Y-cable to two dedicated amps. The HT-amp is switched off while listening music in the 3-channel stereo mode of processor. While watching HT all is normal, signal routing as usual using the other amp.

Delay requirements of that 2nd bass reproduction system you manage by minidsp2x4HD.
