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.

Lalitk this is for both subs?

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.

Ok, I guess this is a thing. My bad. So, why would you want to do this. What is the advantage?

YES.

Actually, I forgot to mention that I feed both subs a stereo signal instead of a left sub and a right sub. So both setups are correct. Depending on the way you use your 2 subs.

You could just hook to the actual speakers binding post as well.
