Still not sure what way to go. I need something modular that can serve as a subwoofer for full-range. Mainly for movies. I am out of space, if I were to get a dedicated bass rig I'd have to sell half a dozen guitars (oh the horror!).
So I think I have these ways to go:
This is all not optimal. Too many things to drag around. They don't make a 3-way 19" power amp (for two satellites and one subwoofer), much less with an integrated crossover. They don't make powered PA subwoofers with useful crossovers for the satellites like many home subwoofers have.
Any thoughts?
So I think I have these ways to go:
- Get one of those mini bass amps that come in a nice nylon bag and a random 15" cabinet. Use as subwoofer just as-is, cutting highs until you can't locate it anymore or get a basic crossover.
- Get a programmable bass preamp such as the Zoom B3, then go into either:
- Active subwoofer and something for the highs (2x10 or so). So I'd have to drag around a second cabinet.
- 19" power amp and passive cabinet, in this case I would make or buy a cabinet with some high frequency capabilities. So I'd have to drag around a 19" rack. For use as a home theater I would get a crossover such as this one: http://www.samsontech.com/samson/pro...s-mini/sxover/
- Get full-range PA speakers and hope that boosting the bass will make it sound allright. Example product: Electro-Voice ELX112P
