Greetings Everyone,
To keep it short and sweet. I own a pair of Fluance ai40s, they’re an active set of bookshelf speakers. 2-way with a 5.25” woofer and a 1” soft dome. Since they aren’t the ai60s they dont have a sub out. Which after hearing you weren’t able to create a crossover I went with the 40s (plus they fit perfect in my situation). My question though is how am I able to add a sub to my system and “create” a crossover 1. Removing some of the heft off the woofers when dealing with low frequencies. 2. So I wont have to feel concerned about watching movies which may have intense bass. And also adding some bass.
Do I need to add a dac and dsp to my system? A preamp? And is it possible for the subwoofer to be active aswell. I looking to not spend too much on gear, I enjoy finding excellent components that are “budget” (owning a pair of tin t2’s).
Also my listening room isn’t the largest. I believe it’s about 10x10. So an 8” subwoofer would do me just fine with some tuning
If anyone can help that would be excellent, there may be another thread that may have an answer but I haven’t been able to understand if there’s a clear straight forward method I can use.
