Hi guys I’ve got a question about introducing an in line high pass filter to my system. I’ve got two different situations that I’d like to know about and that I will lay out below.
I have an integrated amp that does not have pre outs or any form of bass management. I’m currently running tower speakers and I’d like to possibly eliminate the lowest frequencies (probably 30hz and below) from being sent to them. In this circumstance I’m looking for something that would connect via rca between my streamer and my amp. I’ve found some products on Parts Express but they are not very well reviewed. Any possible suggestions about a product that can do this for me, and also any information about any negative effects from doing so would be appreciated.
In my second scenario, I am considering selling my tower speakers and getting bookshelf speakers and a sub. The sub will have to be connected with speaker level connections as once again I do not have pre outs on my amp. With the product in scenario 1 there will not be any low frequencies to send to the sub, so that won’t work. Is there a product I can use that would connect with speaker wire and high pass in between the amp and the speakers. In this circumstance I assume that this will not lessen the load on the amp as it would in the first circumstance, but it would still lessen the load on the speakers.
Thank you for any info!
