    Building a stereo high end system around a subwoofer

    I think it can be done... but it will be hard work... sealed large standmounted speakers will help with integration, and stereo subs... and a large room. If it doesnt sound great without dsp... it will probably never get to greatness with dsp... Sent from my GT-I9500 using Tapatalk
