While reading other posters questions around complementing a sub woofer with 4 Pi it kind of got me curious so I did a quick and dirty test using an existing JBL sub woofer that I have connected to my Home theater and tapped it into my current 2 channel setup with a Y- RCA cable off one of the channels between my DAC and SET amp.
My JBL sub woofer have a variable cross-over and variable gain so it allowed me to adjust its output to blend with the 4 Pi...
Overall, the sound from the sub was difficult to blend with 4 Pi and in some cases, I noticed the sound from the sub was a little out of sync from 4 Pi.

Question, will the issues mentioned above still be there if I build 3 Pi sub woofer and use Pyle crone cross-over mentioned by Wayne? I'm thinking of re-using one of my decommissioned Eminence Omega speakers when I build the 3 Pi sub.


Thanks
