Hi everyone, I know this kind of question gets asked a lot and sometimes for the wrong reasons, but I currently have a pair of Wharfedale 10.1's and a Yamaha AX-490 amplifier and i'm looking to upgrade to something with more of a punch. There are several options;
I currently have a subwoofer (granted not that great but packs a punch) from a home cinema system, however this is passive and only 4 ohms so I can't just connect it to my system right? Is there anyway of buying a sub amp or something similar and running it through that or is it a lost cause?
Buying a subwoofer, this isn't a common practice for a stereo hi-fi set up, what are the complications?
Lastly, being patient, wait some time and splash out on some floorstanders, but will there be a noticeable difference in terms of power?
I kinda think that i'm just a bit of a bass junkie so i'm mainly looking at the bass side of things, any advice appreciated
