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

so if I were to buy the miniDSP I need the 200$ version

or is DAC optional?

200$ version

if you bought the 100$ you could do it but you'd need to put another dac into it/turntable/whatever

add a UMIK-1?

and whats this

tbh im wondering if you could just use a audio splitter

id try that first tbh lol

some better alternatives for kz zst max 20 $?

zst sux

I dont think you can get xiaomi hybrid pro for that low either

zst does have some good things about it,it does look like tasty hardsugar candy, alternative does depend on what you like
