billybob Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Don't know what it would like, The acoutimass is a Bose(bose) subwoofer type for their systems. May be a couple of models so, sure you shop.

Xgujkbgrfgnbvff Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 Forgive my utter ignorance on the matter as I'm a complete newb, but given it's a mixed bag already I'm surprised it matters so much? Would i really be ill-advised to mix it further? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don't you give us room dimensions including ceiling height and photos size and specs of those speakers and if the Crown amp is capable of an RCA line out to a sub. This information may well help here in a decision of which subwoofer and the size of same. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Russian-Spy- Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to share a bit about what your plans are for the system. For example, if your planning on upgrading other parts of your system in the future, a Bose sub might not be the best option for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xgujkbgrfgnbvff Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 Tv and existing speaker position indicated on dimensions drawing. I've considered eventually adding another pair of speakers in the same position on the opposite wall...but who knows when/if. I might also like to take the equipment out into the field at most once a year for an annual party. This may also never happen. Lastly, I'd like to locate the sub below the tv on a shelf next to a four post wall mounted equipment rack I'm going to fabricate to hold the amp, equalizer and other equipment. Plz lmk if I've failed to answer a question adequately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fido Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I use HSU subs and love them - great bang for the buck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amstaff Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 So, your speakers are 20+ years old,right? Nothing wrong with old speakers, they can work awesome. https://www.bose.com/en_us/support/products/bose_speakers_support/bose_stereo_support/4_2_series2.html Your amp is not a "top shelf" one (power wise) - by today's standards, but may work well for your usage. The room you show is pretty big. I don't think you want to over-power your speakers with bass, especially in stereo. No HT in there? My advice...Buy a cheap'ish sub. Don't over pay. Don't buy Klipsch. A few hundred $$ should be more than enough..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
