adding a powered sub to mains with powered subs built in

[John Linebarger]

I have Pioneer Elite TZ-F700 mains with 12" powered subs built in. I
am not happy with the bass and I am thinking of adding a 15" DT powered
sub to the system. Am I going to be able to do this without problems?
If so, are there any particular settings or hook ups that I should be
aware of. This will mean 3 powered subs at the same time.

I wouldn't worry about that last bit. Most all of my speakers drivers
are powered at the same time!

You said "mains". If you have multichannel, you would just use the
receiver/processor subwoofer output.

The mains are rated down to 25 Hz, according to the Ultimate AV review.
Is there a placement problem? If you just want more bass, another sub
might do it.

Two subs are good. Four subs are ideal for highest
surround sound quality. Three subs cause wave form
anomalies.
