it normally goes for around 500 euros but I can get it for 100

a av reciever?

depends what you want lol

if you want dolby atmos + 4k (hdmi 2.0) you want something new

i mean it's prob ok apart from that

well I'm buying a Subwoofer so I needed a reciever

im completely lost on what I need

some people say I need an amp other say I need a reciever

I just want a 2.1 setup

these are the speakers I have and the sub im getting

oh

you just need a crossover

both are active

what's that?

(im a huge audio noob)

ok both are active - so both have amps in

let me read manual first lol

alright

idk tbh

ok

a crossover bassically splits up the frequeuncies and sends them to the right driver

so you don't want high frequencies being handled by your sub for example but by the tweeter

ohh

so if I were to get a crossover, I would set my sub range from 27hz-120hz and the rest to my normal speakers?

pretty much

so you either want a reciever/amp/preamp with 3 pre outs - one sub, then 1 l/r

do you know any?

or spend 100$ and get a mini dsp

what's that

a dsp box

lets you do a crossover in software

and eq your speakers

all sorts of stuff

oh nice

yeah looks like you'd need the 200$ 2x4hd if you wanted to use it as a dac as well

alternatively buy the jbl lsr sub thing

dunno how much that is

ohh nice
