Maybe a stupid question.. Getting a sub next weekend to grow my HT set-up of front plus central speaker, and wonder how the sub will work with this?
I use a Yamaha AV 863 reciever and when playing audio i use 2CH only, and then the central speaker is off as I want. It only activates in other settings when watching movie through DVD or TV.
Question is, how will the subwoofer act in this? I know it will be active in all the movie sound settings and 7ch etc, but how about a "normal" 2CH cd listen mode, on or off? (provided that the sub is turned on for sure?)
Think of it like this adding a sub is like turning your speakers into the equal of tower speakers. Your base drivers will become midrange and upper base drivers leaving the heavy lifting below 80Hz to the sub. Since the sub is in its own box the vibration base notes would cause in a normal tower speaker will not effect the main speakers.
