|   SVS Subwoofer question , need help | Andy Ozworth
Apr 22, 2001 4:53 PM | | I just bought a SVS 20-39CS from svs subwoofers.com and i have a old JVC stereo amp to power it.
But when i watch VHS movies i could hear dialoge coming from the subwoofer.
Could this be from my Dolby pro logic reciever's subwoofer out crossover ?.
Could you buy a seperate varaible crossover so i can cut out the dialoge ? if not could i buy a dvd player and the LFE channal take care of that ?
Please help thanks |

| How are you hooking up the sub? | DueN
Apr 22, 2001 6:51 PM | | are you feeding it with a full range signal? That may explain the "voices" coming out. Make sure you only feed it with a low-pass signal. |

Apr 22, 2001 7:11 PM | | Check the manual for the DPL receiver you're using as the processor. Specifically, refer to the output bandwidth of the subwoofer preout. If it's a full range signal...you'll need to add some sort of lowpass(LP)filtering between the DPL receiver and the receiver you're using to power the woof.
The least expensive option would probably be an *F-MOD*(harrison labs). These are passive filter networks that ou just plug in to the subwoofer cable.(the cable running from the DPL receiver's subwoofer output to the amp) The rolloff isn't very steep with these...so I'd use something like a 50-75hz LP.
If you wanted an active filter, the most cost effective option would be to get a basic $19-$29 auto subwoofer XO, and grab a $5 wallwart power supply for it.
