Adding subwoofer to Full-Ragne Speakers question
The sub will only help the front speakers at and below the crossover point you set. Most will set it at 60-80hz. You need to know the low cut-off HZ level for the speakers and then see what either the pre-amp/receiver and sub x-over will allow you...
