Hi all! I currently have a pair of AV40 power speakers which I love. I am, however, craving some more bass and want to add a sub to the equation. After researching many powered sub options, the polk psw10 seems to be the best fit.
While I have done a lot of digging around, and found a bunch of topics related to pairing the av40s with a sub, I am still very unsure about the whole process. I am posting because I want to make sure, before i buy the psw10, that I will be able to easily and efficiently pair it with my av40s. I would be playing out of my ibasso d7 usb dac.
I am really an armature when it comes to the idea of setting something like this up. I am just looking for a simple, easy to understand explanation of how it would be done, and if I need to add any extra cables/adapters. Right now I'm expecting that I should be able to have both the speakers and the sub playing simultaneously through the d7, hooking the R/L analog outputs on the back of the d7 into the sub, and the line out to the av40s (Which is currently how i listen). There is also a "digital output" on the d7 but I'm not sure what it actually is. RCA perhaps?
Anyways, I would really really appreciate any help. I understand that there is a bunch of information on this topic out there already... I've done a ton of research and I am still left unsure due to my lack of know-how.
