I dont exactly know where to post this - this will do though.

This is really a multi subject thread. It involves electronics, speakers, subwoofers. Everything.

So, my system is mainly based on 2 channel music and for 2 channel music, it defiitely excels. I would say the biggest weakness is without a doubt Home Theater. It just isnt there.

Well the Odyssey Audio Candela has a HT Bypass, so I was thinking about getting a unit like an Outlaw preamp or Emotiva (I like the Emotiva better) and using some its features.

Here is the idea...

Basically, I will be running dual subs - and for music Ill have the crossovers set to where I want them, via the subs. And a I would run one cable to one of the inputs on each of the subs and that would go to the Odyssey.

Then I would go on the LFE out on the HT preamp and run it to the other inputs - and I would disable the crossovers before a movie and use a preset 80hz xover and boost the subs via the LFE level on the preamp to get the volume I want out of them, so basically all I would be doing is flipping two switches to get the performance I desire.

Any thoughts?

Another benefit to this is I can crossover my mains as well and can therefore crank it a lil louder.

Good ideas. Only suggestion would be to run the subs directly to the HT preamp for movie use.
