Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions Thinking about running 2 subs

I was planning on running a splitter from the lfe. Is this the best way to do this?

That's what I would do if my receiver didn't have two sub outputs. Use an SPL meter to balance the two out.

The H/K I'm currently running has only 1 sub out, and from what I can tell the Dennon 2805 (that will be here Tues.) also has only 1 sub out.
I'm really not sure if I want to run 2 subs but thought I'd give it a listen.
The HSU VTF3 seems to give more than enough bass, but I was just wondering what it would sound like if I added my old Velodyne CHT10.

I'm thinking about two subs too. A splitter is the least expensive way to do it. Other than that you could use an Outlaw ICBM depending on your configuration. It work quit well for me as I have an external amplifier.

Usually if you run two subs, they should be the same sub, even if you're considering two different models from the same company. The Velodyne'll sound quite different than the HSU.

I agree. If I was going to do it, I would go one step further and run identical subs. Same model etc.

I know that is what Dr. Hsu says 2 of the exact same model.Even within the same brand they should be of the same exact model.

Just watched Saving Private Ryan................ I dont need 2 subs!
That movie and the bass involved just scared the livin sh#t out of me.
I know I jumped out of my chair at least 10 times.
Holy crap, I cant even imagine running 2 VTF3s.
I'm looking over at my Discus (fish) tank, I think it scared the sh#t out of them too. Time for a water change there and a boxer change here.
Thanks for the input guys.

That's very cool! Is Saving Private Ryan in DD or DTS (or both) ?

Thanks,

Tom

I found one in DTS. I ordered it from Amazon a couple of weeks ago for 14.00 or 15.00 dollors.
