My experience adding subwoofers to 2 channel
In fact, you dont need a pro RTA, I did it with an Android app called Sound Analyzer App wich is enough for the job. You have to find the flatest bass response possible and doing it by ear is not an easy job. The app helped me A LOT to find the be...

One suggestion, read Jim Smith's articles about adding subs:https://www.psaudio.com/article/subwoofery-trick-or-treat/ 
My experience adding subwoofers to 2 channel
I've just bought a couple of medium quality subs and after following Jim Smith's guide for proper subs set up, with an RTA on some steps, the 3D sound and bass energy Im getting from my system is incredible! And I still have to keep on tunning the... 
Chord Qutest - would you buy it again?
I forgot to mention that the Audio-gd R8 also has FPGA programable and 7 different filters.Also its a ladder DAC with an incredible analog sound. You wont regret buying one.  
Chord Qutest - would you buy it again?
HelloYou should also consider the Audio-gd R8 with upgrade of Accusilicon clocks. I dont think there's any DAC with its price quality ratio.

How to connect subwoofers
ParadisecomThe people of SVS and Kef have told me the exact same thing, the high level inputs of their subs have thousands of ohms and would not provide an extra load to the amp.The thing is that here (Argentina) there's no dealers of SVS and Kef ...

Will a subwoofer add depth and clarity to my system, or just bass?

Will a subwoofer add depth and clarity to my system, or just bass?
Ive just found out the Kef Kube series. For my room, I guess a pair of Kubes 10b should work very well. It's relatively small (easier to move around to reach the best location), reaches 24 Hz, looks nice on the outside, accepts speaker connection,...

Hey DaveA couple of questions for you as you seem to have large experience with high end hear and knowledge in audio. As I understand, you and some other members in this thread, with more experience than me I guess, have managed to successfully ma...
