So i'm incredibly excited waiting to hook up my new (trade in, well new to me!) Signature 57 this coming weekend! I've been searching through old threads to learn a bit more about how to make it play nice with my sub, a REL 505, which is an important part of my system that i'd like to keep around. I currently have the REL hooked up in high-level mode -- to the speaker binding posts of my current amp, run in parallel with my LR speaker cables. I've got it hooked up as depicted in the first image in this link:
http://rel.net/support/rel-connectivity/I understand that Vinnie generally recommends using the line-level RCA outputs on his amps, but i'm having good luck with overall bass integration on my system by using the REL high-lev approach and would like to not screw with that. Unless, of course, doing so causes me to fry my new amp.
Advice and anecdotes from personal experience appreciated.
While I know there are some older threads on this, I wanted to open up the question again in case there's any new thinking on the question, or any RWA owners with REL subs that have found success (= no catastrophic amp failure) using high-level outputs from their RWA to their REL.
