Simple 5.1 HTS with a 10" ported sub that works and sounds good for the room size.

If you had stereo pre-outs then you'd want the sub to sum it to mono, tho. Reactions: ryanosaur and Otto Pylot

I did this on my Subs. I can't say I noticed an increase in volume/SPL... but my MusicSense does pretty much work flawlessly. If you don't have a problem... Don't fix it! Reactions: lovinthehd
