[QUOTE="cdr, post: 346928, member: 550804"] ahh you definately couldnt do number 1 and if you dont want booming bass why go for a sub? you dont have to use a high pass cut that would be used for door speakers etc... to keep the low ranges out thereby giving you more room to push you levels without damage to or distortion from your speakers as for the difference between them those numbers ie 50-120 and 50-750 are measured in Hertz otherwise known as the number of cycles of a pulse of a signal or wave within a second lower Hz numbers are a greater slower band and a lower tone where as higher hz numbers are the opposite a high pass filter lets everything above the set number to pass though the gate everything else below it is cut out so if you were to put in a high pass at lets say 300Hz most deep bass anything youd put through a sub definately and the far lower extremeties of the homan voice would be cut out of your output signal. reason you cant go for option 1 is because that would be feeding your sub from 500Hz to about 15000Hz (depending on music) and subs max frequencie ranges are usually well below 1000Hz so you wouldnt get any bass at all and you would be doing damage to your sub go for option 2 set a low pass at 120Hz or so [/QUOTE]
