Subwoofer installation on APS50

Hello everyone,

Did someone know if it is possible to install a Subwoofer on a APS 50?
Do I need a DSP?

Thank you,

KR

Why would you if you use an amp with high level inputs and a built in x-over.

u can use a RCA converter or a highlevel input amp. i would only recommend if using subs only. If your gonna amp any highrange speakers get a cleansweep or similar. The noise in the audio 50 or 20 units is terrible, only the harmon system is an amp/sub only setup, IMO...
