Home Theatre System Subwoofer?
I have a average Sony in a Box 850 watt sound system. The subwoofer that is already on it is a 350 watt. I also Have 2 large sony tower speakers that are about 275 watts each. The foam in both of them has detireorated and they dont work so well. I plan to go to wal mart and buy 2, 12 inch sony xplod car subwoofers.I know already that they will fit and the connections are the same but I JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF THE SOUND SYSTEM WOULD SUPPORT THEM. I think they are either 800 or 1200 watts each. if not what is an estimate of what my system would need to run them?

This is possible…however the speaker you are replacing, is it a subwoofer in the first place? Because although technically it will work, but how well would depend on your speaker’s crossover that’s built into your tower cabinet. So if it has a pretty close cross over setting like 80-120hertz, it should be okay. This way it will know how much power and at what frequency to make those subwoofers kick in. Another factor is, would you have enough power to drive such a subwoofer along with the midrange speaker and tweeters? If its so different from your old subwoofer, turning it too loud to hear the subwoofer would result in blowing your midrange and tweeter. I guess you won’t really know until you buy it, wal-mart usually have a good refund policy, right? Good luck!
