I was cleaning out my old emails from various companies.
Apparently I did not catch what was said in one email that I received from REL.
I had inquired about the problems besetting certain Nuprime amps when hooking up a REL subwoofer.
I own the ST-10, and its on the list not to use with a REL using the direct connection option.
Here is the email I over looked. It appears that I can use a newer REL sub as they recommend for the best hook up.
Hope it helps.

I hope also that Jason or someone makes a correction if still needed!

Gene,
Sorry for the delayed reply.
You certainly can connect a new REL to your ST 10 via high level (or any Class D amp for that matter) without special adapters.
RELs come with a high level cable that has three connection wires.
The RED and YELLOW wires get connected to the positive amplifier terminals. These are the input signals to the REL.
The BLACK wire would get connected to the Copper GND screw on the back of the ST 10.
There is some misinformation floating out on the web right now.
1) The note on the NuPrime website is likely referring to old REL models which did not have capacitive inputs to block the potential DC from ClassD designs. This is not the case for all current REL models available.
2) There is no need for a configuration harness for ClassD. We make a harness for exactly one amp model and that is the BHK amps for PS audio and it is only used to eliminate hum when the BHK goes into standby mode.

Justin

Hello...
I understand that you have a configuration harness that enables a REL subwoofer to be connected to class D amplifiers.
But, does it pertain to all class D amps? I have a NuPrime ST 10. It appears that not all NuPrime class D amps will qualify.
Can you tell me if it can be done by the information found at this link, please?
