most subwoofer have both input and output audio terminal, why not use the output from this subwoofer to drive the second one?
this must be better than using Y connector because it will degrade signal quality as it is shared by 2 users |

QUOTE(VSX-AX2as @ Mar 26 2010, 07:55 AM) i want to have the idea of having to expend in future if the bass is not enough for me... i've still yet to purchase myself the HT set... if the Y splitter is possible, then i can drop the idea of buying amp/receiver with 2 sub preout.. save some money there. some ppl say 2 smaller sub is better then 1 big sub... but, not sure will it supply less power to the sub or not... thanks for all the feedback guys..

Yes I have read about that too. Apparently Two small sub, properly placed, will sounds better than one single bigger sub in that effect.some ppl say 2 smaller sub is better then 1 big sub... but, not sure will it supply less power to the sub or not... thanks for all the feedback guys.. If you go to thx.com, they have a simple guide on how to place two subs in THX configuration. First choice is actually opposing each other in the room. For those who are buying new amp, do opt for dual sub pre-out as a feature. It helps a lot. |

Better go for Denon 4810 coz it has 9.3 pre-out. Effectively, 3 sub connections. Yay!
