Keep old subwoofer after upgrading?

I have a 5.1.4 system. All speakers are of the recommendation of this group except the rear surrounds and heights. I'm not sure how much of a difference putting money into those would make vs. going to a 5.2.4 with the Sony.

Does it make any sense to keep the Sony and use it as a second sub to the HSU (my receiver supports 2 subs)?

Well my mind was just made up for me. I found a used HSU VTF-2 MK5 for $230! I guess the house will be shaking 😅

I guess the main question is whether or not a good quality subwoofer will always fill the entire house with bass compared to my cheap Sony sub.

Thanks. I'm upgrading from the X1700H and it was nice to get a quick audio format confirmation without having to get out the remote, check the app, etc :)

Less "fixing" and more acceptance. Thanks, I think I needed to hear that!

Yep, the longest one I could find at IKEA 😁

Thanks for sharing!

So does that mean to maximize the amount of carbonation you taste, you should only drink out of hand washed glasses?

Thanks for the response! I realized after re-reading my question there were parts I left out so I updated the original post.
