Chorus II as sub

[gazelle]

Gotta question. Can I use my chorus II's as subwoofers/fullrange. I am currently using my kenwood reciever as a preamp/amp. Preamp for my center(KLF-C7), and mains (Chorus) they in turn are amped by an Adcom 2535 center in bridged mono. That being said, I do not currently own a sub. Since my reciever has a preout for the sub this is what I was thinking might work. Y connector at the sub preout, to two each Y connector at the right and left channels at the amp. Y connector at the amp so it will get the signal for the midranges and sub. In theory the Chorus will get all of the bass and midrange. The cutsheet says they only go down to 39Hz, but they sound like they have plenty O' bass during Two channel. So whatta you think? Cheaper than buying a sub but will it sound comparable? Thanks

Most recievers and preamps have an option to send a full range signal to your speakers anyway.

It sounds like you would be using the preamp to split the signal and then using Y cables to combine it again, imo not a good thing.

The recievers I have worked with had these options for bass frequency,

Main(the low freqs were sent to your speakers),

Both(the low freqs were sent to the sub out and your speakers),

Sub(the low freqs were sent only to the sub with the preamp crossing over your main speakers at usually 80Hz or so).

This should be easier than going through all those Y cables.
