Need help with rel or velodyne subwoofer for ster

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.

But what I don't get about this timing logic which supposedly favors the high level outputs is the fact that the signal then has to go through the sub's amplifier. If the signal is coming from the preamp's low-level outputs, then both sets of signals then have to pass through their respective amplifiers, which, it seems to me, would make the timing more matched.

Of course, not having any serious technical background, I may just be speaking ex recti.
