Hi,
I am looking for a sealed sub to add to my powered Xeo10 speakers (65W x 2).
The "system" is a media streamer box with optical output to the speakers.
I plan to feed the optical signal to a small DAC/processor (MiniDSP 2x4 HD), that will give me 3 line level outputs, 2 for speakers crossed above 80-100Hz, and low level line input for the sub.
Ah, in addition, the sub has to be white to match the speakers....OK it does not have to be but I'd prefer white over black sub.
After looking for a while at what is available, return policy, etc., I narrowed my choices down to 3 subs:
1. REL T5i
2. SVS PB-1000
3. B&W ASW608.
Budget is $600 MAX.
I have read multiple articles and posts about advantage of REL subs that use high-level input vs. other makes that use low-level line input.
Since I have no choice but to use line level input, I wonder if REL would have any advantage over SVS or B&W in my application.
Also, I wonder if SVS with its 300w RMS nad 720w max power would be too much.
Thanks.
