What is the model of the Marantz? It could have a DSP built in.
Duntech PCL-3 on-wall will xover at 80hz make easier to drive
If you crossover a "hard to drive" speaker, does it really make that much easier to drive if your amp is underpowered?
I picked up a sweet pair of Duntech PCL-3 on-wall speakers. They’re probably 30 years old but sound so dang good! However, I’m going to put them in the bedroom where I only watch tv on 2 channel with a little Marantz receiver at 50 wpm. These are pretty hard to push and 50wpc just isn’t enough.. But, if I add a sub and crossover the speakers at 80hz, how much does that ease the amp strain?
Keep in mind - this is not intended to be an audiophile setup.. The little marantz is perfect because it’s small and has HDMI ARC which is a must have for my tv watching.
Thoughts?
