If hilde’s suggestion doesn’t pan out you could always follow REL’s advice and get another T5/x. They repeatedly advocate for 1 sub per amp. Also, what is your preamp? Does it have a summed mono line output? You shouldn’t just Y-connect stereo outputs.
Connecting monoblock tube amps to single subwoofer.
Hi all,
I have added a REL5TX sub to my system which is driven by VTL225 monoblocks.Currently the sub and amps are connected via the low level outputs on my preamp. I would prefer to use the high level connection to the REL by direct connection to the the VTLs. I am concerned about creation of a ground loop that will cause hum on the system. I have been told that the ground loop can be avoided by running a ground wire directly between each amp. Is this a possible solution, and if so, where / how should the ground "jumper" be connected to each monoblock?
Many thanks in advance for any comments or suggestions.
