You read between the wrong lines! ;)
My theory there was assuming the hi-pass WOULD be used.
What my ramblings there are more concerned with is this:
When you get back X amount of gain from eliminating the lowbass/subsonic component from the satellites, how much of that gain can you *actually* use when what you are replacing the low/sub signal with is additional midbass/mids/highs.
This is apples nd oranges stuff. Bass "beats", pulses, surges etc. are typically more cyclic than higher up in frequency. It gets into the chicken egg part of amps - max gain versus thermal capacity. Basically, what will you run out of first.
That was what I was trying to get at.
Cheers,
Presto
