Timoteo is right, there is definitely no need for a sub that large unless I wanted to collapse my bedroom walls and possibly make my ceiling fan fall off the hinges
. But after emailing HSU about hooking their sub up to my A5+'s this was their response:
"Due to the Audioengine's two channel line outs, you need a VTF-1 MK2 which has two RCA inputs. The Audioengine outputs full range signal, which the VTF-1 MK2 can filter out higher frequencies. The Audioengine will be fed full range signal from your source. The VTF-1 MK2 has no high pass filter, and neither does the A5+ has any way to receive a high pass filtered signal. At least the sub can fill in where the A5+ rolls off. If the A5+ is well designed, it would have a built-in high pass filter."
Is that correct? I really don't want to spend the 500$ for that sub (I'm including shipping) Or is there another way around that? I have little to no experience with hooking a subwoofer up this way so I would really appreciate it if someone could chime in.
That being said my computer sound card DOES have a sub out (i'm pretty sure...I could post a picture if you want) But if I eventually wanted a DAC for my computer would hooking it up be a problem?
