For those of you who have floorstanders and a subwoofer, how many of you offload the low frequencies from your floorstanders so that they only play through the sub when you are listening to 2-channel music?
In my system my ASW750 subwoofer is wired in between my preamp and my amp so that I can use the 80Hz filter in the sub to send frequencies 80Hz and above to my CDM9NT floorstanders.
I do this because I think the sub does a much better job with those low frequencies and it protects my floorstanders from damage when I listen at high volume.
I've often wondered what I'd do if I had high end floorstanders - for example, 803D, 802D, 800D. I've always assumed that offloading low frequencies wouldn't be necessary with the 800D, but the answer is not so obvious to me with the 803D and the 802D.
What do you guys think?
