Well, I ordered the Klipsch R-112SW. Hopefully that'll get me some bass.

Great. Thank you for your quick response. If I use the crossover controls on the sub, that only affects the frequency of the sub. I would still be sending full range to the Forte II's. I'm sure they can handle it. I already replaced the crossovers in the cabinets with ones from Crites. Not messing with them again. Sorry for all the questions. Joe

Thanks. I guess spitting the phono's from the preamp to the amp would be a bad thing, huh?

Hello folks, I have several years experience installing car audio systems with amps, component speakers, subs, and both active and passive crossovers. BUT I have limited experience with home audio systems. I would like to add a sub to my current system. My equipment is circa ~1991. Carver TFM-35 amp, Carver ct-3 preamp, and a set of Klipsch Forte II's. I'm looking at the Klipsch subs. They seem to be self-powered and have line-level inputs. How do I integrate this sub into my current system? Do I need a crossover? What do I power the line-level inputs with? Do I need to high-pass the Forte II's? Sorry for being a Noob; and any advise would be greatly appropriated. Joe
