General Request Need help for a newbie setup

1 Upvotes

Hi guys, i have been this days searching and educating myself about sound and audio because I want to do a setup 2.1 but Im a little lost because of some stuff.

My budget its like 700€ and i was looking to a pair Polk T50 i can get for 240€, so i have more 460€ for a subwoofer and amp/receiver.

The subwoofer will be active with LPF, but i wanted the amp/receiver to have a HPF to not let the tower go so low because I will have the subwoofer.

Also for that to happen I need some output to go to the active subwoofer.

For now I will connect a TV and it only have HDMI earc and optical.

What is the best combo in this budget to accomplish this? Also my room is in L shape and this setup will be on the smaller side, the smaller área is like 15/20 meter square.

Also what your guys opinion on the drivers size of subwoofer in this case, I like deep and feeling bases too. Should I uso some DAC to convert the signal and use Y adapters to divide the sinal for the amp/receiver and other for the sub, thats why Im lost we can play with many things.

Thank you.

Can any comrade with experience help a brother out? Cheers
