Connecting dual subs with speakon connectors


Hi all :)

I want to connect two subs (bk electronics XLS200-DF MK2) with the high level lead speakon cables to my poweramp. Now my question is, can I connect the red white(or yellow) amd black cables of both speakon cables to the correct speaker outputs on the poweramp or should the cables to the two subwoofers not come into contact for some reason?

Right now I am using a Musical Fidelity m6prx power amp but I will exchange it for an ayon triton power amp in the near future.

 

Thank you for any and all help.

  • No problem. Just twist the same colors (from both subs) together and connect as the manual describes (for a single sub). I am running 2 subs this way. Works perfectly.

NO!!!🤦‍♂️

The correct way to connect two subs with high level input would be what @noromance said, if you find the gain is too high then float the yellow wire.

Red and yellow (together) to + / black to – on each channel on the power amp.”

Yes, one sub connected to the left and second sub connected to right outputs (binding post) of the amp to each sub’s high level input via speakon connector.
