Hi Lucas,

At first, thank you very much at responding so quickly to my post! Really appreciate the effort!

Coming back to your answers:

I have made the decision of buying the 1723 1s! Being musical and is most important for me and it really appeals to me that it integrates better in the sound. Also my tower speakers are gloss white so it’s a small bonus that the 1723 come in a gloss white finish!

I have one more question regarding the cambridge Amp. On the website it says the following about the sub output:
The CXA81 integrated amp features a mono-subwoofer output for adding a powered subwoofer. To ensure there’s no unnecessary high frequency noise affecting the subwoofer, the subwoofer output is filtered at 3kHz. This is high enough to prevent any phase shift associated with the low pass filter affecting what happens below 200Hz. The result is a phase linear subwoofer output signal which is clean and musical.

Now I read that this is a pretty high ‘low pass filter’. Do you think it couples well with the 1723?
I guess the best thing to do is play with the settings of the subwoofer and see what works best?

Thanks for the recommendation. I will start with 1 subwoofer first and see how it sounds. Maybe it’s not needed but for me bass is important. I really noticed this when trying out my tower speakers without subwoofer.

Again many thanks for all the information and quick response!
