Adding a third REL subwoofer

Using a pair of REL subwoofers using the high level connection to a class A/B amp and am considering adding a third. What is the best choice for connecting the third subwoofer. Would you use the high level connection with the speaker terminals already used for the stereo left right subs. Any advice? Thanks.

Got it ,thank you. I just recently took a old sub and added it to the REL’s using pre out from the amp, and really enjoyed the set up. So now of course I can’t help but wonder what improvements the matching sub would bring.

My system is in the LR so I have to find a "proper WAF" place to setup the 3rd. Those with the swarm setup are sold on it . I'll figure it out sometime soon. Right nowe got my hands full with streaming issues. Ugh

FWIW, dialing in subs beyond 1 was very difficult. I realized that variable phase is very important, and many REL's do not have that -- they have 0 or 180. Perhaps a sub that does might be something to consider. Just a thought.
