I am wanting to add an sub and a center speaker to my 2 speaker setup (currently running http://www.wharfedale.co.uk/Products/Product/tabid/78/PID/10/CID/52/language/en-GB/Default.aspx) to effectively run 3.1 (I have been told that the amp will do this automatically and it is quite a common setup for people who can't be bothered running cables around the lounge).
Is anybody running 3.1? and how does it sound?
Secondly when buying a sub what should I be looking for, i realise my options are really between 10" and 12" and then named or no named (ie from jaycar).
Jaycar has some really cheap boxed subwoofers ie http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?ID=CS2457&CATID=15&form=CAT&SUBCATID=831. What do you experts think of that? Or would it be worth sticking with the same stuff as the rest of my setup ie Wharfedale diamond branded sub.
Also 10" vs 12" for gaming and movies what is better?
My speakers have 8" subs in them but they don't sound very good, am I likely to notice a huge increase in bass ie huge punches with explosions when adding a proper boxed sub?
