RE: Too much noise?

Thanks, Kal.

I have followed you re the DEQX Pre-Mate, a bit reluctant because of the complexity(I am an old guy). Still, I edge closer with time, and maybe they'll make it a bit simpler by the time I decide. As for "real" subwoofers, I keep looking. That I have a surplus of amplification and 2 SMSs still draws me toward passives, but there are few, and they are seldom reviewed.

I asked about class d because most recently I read a review of the new SVS 16-inch ported sub & thought of asking them to custom-make a passive, but then realized that that sub is normally equipped with an over-kilowatt class d amp as are those from JL and Velodyne. Not sure how to get that kind of power from class ab amps, I circled round to wondering about "modern powered subs" again and whether they'd "pollute" my sound because of the switching. I take it your answer is "no" or at least "likely not".
