    How to add a subwoofer to a Spectral system?

    yes I know. Right now I'm feeing the tape out signal from 30sv into another pre, through RCAs, that then splits subs and main signal. So essentially a two way active. Why? Because the 400s are connected to main outputs and I only have XLRs. Not using the Spectral power amps at the moment though...

    How to add a subwoofer to a Spectral system?

    Would it not depend on whether your subs can take a high level input? I wondered about taking it off the speaker inputs... or possibly using tape-out function on pre to feed the signal? regards

    Spectral amplifiers and preamp and MIT powerbar

    I had three AC2s - one still powers my pre. I tried them on the power amps and although they were very detailed with pinpoint imaging, they lacked bass oomph, which I got back with a pair of Running Springs Crown Jewel HZs. HZs didn't quite have the obvious detail of the AC2 but I felt the...
