Using my Marchand crossover and passive subs, I set the gain on the crossover @ 10am and the mains at 3pm. Quite a difference. And I have very efficient speakers. May not help here but it is possible to use high efficiency speakers.
preamplifier after preamplifier?
Hi.
I have a preamplifier and a poweramplifier I am very satisfied with.
The preamplifier is connected to the poweramplifier and the powerampfiler is connected to speakers,
The connection between the pre- and power-amplifiler is also spited to two active subwoofers.
However, I miss the option to control my sub-woofers volume relative to the speaker volume.
My pre don't have any settings for tuning this, just volume +/-
Can I connect a Second pre-amp with independent volume before the sub-woofers? will this cause any damage or problems?
It might be easier to understand this drawing:
Pre #1: pro-ject pre box s2 digital
Pre #2: AIYIMA Tube Pre

OP, In both of your diagrams above you are still putting all of the bass freqs into your main speakers. Unless you have dual binding posts on your speakers and even then you would be taking out the woofers in the mains entirely. The passive volume seems a nice work-a-round but see paragraph above. I have to agree with @daledeee1 that a two-way Marchand electronic cross-over If there's more to the story please let us know. I have no affiliation with Marchand. Just take a peek at their offerings. www.marchandelec.com Regards, |
