Kef LS50 & Dynaudio C1

[Pim]

I ran a set of Kef LS50's with 2 massive SVS 13.5" sealed subs.
I wasnt using a devialet at the time , but a Rotel class D 250w amp.
I used a miniDSP unit to integrate the subs and speakers , I used 4th order 100hz filter in the minidsp to high pass to the LS50's

I then used the miniDSP to "shape" the bass to integrate it and to taste (flat bass at sitting position is not ok , it needs a lift , if you eq flat , you will have no bass..)

This is the way I would go , use the 200 to high pass the speakers and then use the pre out or a variable digital output to feed a 4x10 (digital in /digital or analog out) or a 2x4 minidsp unit (analog in and 2 analog out) and then do the eq there.
So you have a pure signal to the ls50's and you can safely use DSP via the miniDSP to the subs..as the small sonic signature it may add will be minimal compared to , lets say , you fixing a +10db hump at 40hz.

The controls you have in the minidsp units will far eclipse what you have in the subs , so you can run the subs with all their controls defeated.

Best  of all , you can actually hear in real time as you adjust gain  , freq , slope , shelving , phase ,volume etc

Interesting Rodney, that you went from LS50's + subs to G1's. I've often thought about two ways and subs instead of floor standers. How would you describe the difference between the two? (discarting the difference in amps of course, if you can at all)
