I have ordered an SVS PC-ultra to go with Denon 3806 receiver, polk LSiC, polk LSi15's, and some full size old Cerwin Vegas in the rear. I have an old velodyne CT-100 in the front, close to the TV. My question is would it be OK to use an RCA Y splitter and continue to use the velodyne with the new sub or would this be a bad idea? I plan to move the new sub to the right corner of the room. My family room is certainly not ideal shape for a home theater set up, ie cathedral ceiling with a L shaped room in which both the dining room and the living room run together. I have my front speakers placed further apart than generally recommended due to the shape of the room and the fact that the fireplace resides where I would have put the TV.
I guess I could experiment myself but I was just fishing for opinions. The old sub I am sure is much inferior to the new one.
Another question is the Denon receiver has a program that calculates equilizer setting in the receiver called audissey{maybe misspelled} by taking microphone readings at six different locations in the listening room. When I use this program would this negate the need to run the PEQ and SPL meter readings to calibrate my sub. If no one knows I will ask SVS.
