Need help with rel or velodyne subwoofer for ster

The hi-level connections utilize both channels, and having owned REL for 4 years I have the opposite view on the hi vs low debate. In my system and room, the pre-out connection provides a tighter, more tuneful and integrated sound. Don't rely on REL's ads or literature to determine what your ears tell you sounds best!

Thanks guys.

Bojack, do you connect the line out from the sub to the amp and filter out the low freq going to the amp & speakers?

I simply run a L and R interconnect from my preamp's "Pre Out" RCAs to the "Lo Level" inputs on the REL. The REL then gives you the ability to blend the sound to your main speakers via crossover frequency, polarity, and volume controls. With the RELs, your main speakers must run full range, but I've had no problems with this. (REL's system prevents people from tinkering with their main speakers' crossovers, etc, which can open a can of worms.) Hope this helps.

Dear Glai: Bojack is right: the pre-out is the best way to go.

Now, the integration of subwoofers in an audio system is more much more than only " more bass ". Take a look to these links:

Just try it both ways and see what you prefer. With an REL you can it hooked up both ways. I still prefer the high level inputs. They seem to blend much better with my speakers, the timing is just right. You are getting the signal to the sub at the same time it is getting to your speakers. Where the low level seems to be a bit slower.
