I'm with Bizango1 - it'll probably be a big gain. I run my mains the way you plan to, with a high-pass filter (in my case 60Hz). I go further and bi-amp the mains - I run a full-spectrum direct signal to the midrange-tweeter sections, and high-pass only to the woofers. I use a y-cable to split the preamp signal. The improvement in my system overall is amazing. I'm very happy with the result.
Adding a sub - what will I loose?
It seems that adding another piece of equipment to the audio chain would degrade the sound quality to the main speakers (air, immediacy, the mid range, etc). Or am I way off here??
Currently have a preamp with no sub-out and low output tube amp. Plan to use line level to the sub and then out to the amp. That way speakers would not play full range (above 80hz).
