They label it as high level input? |
Found a great price, so I bought 4 of them.
one for my cousin.
If I hook up via speaker wire, doesn’t this push the low freq from the main towers to the sub?
or still full range for towers?
|
Get a adapter w two male 1 female , plug adapter in back of main out of preamp, then run single shielded rca to sub?
easier this way? this will just dump everything over a certain freq to sub?
Or use the speaker terminals which will remove the low freq going to the speakers (towers) and allow a little louder volume,by not sending lower freq to the smalldual 6” woofers??? |
@jtcf ,
main out rca’s from preamp into the audioquest hard Y adapter..then into the single rca input of the sub?
this is all?
How will this hookup remove the low frequencies from the main towers,???
would it sound better to just use the speaker wire hookup style, which will actually remove the low frequencies from the towers?
or will hooking up with the hard Y adapter also remove the low frequencies from the towers?
Thank you , in advance for all your time guys. |
Amp output red and white both into the audioadvosir connector
and into the single rca of the sub?
|
This works how?
two rca into sub, and a single rca into the preamp white pre out?? |
Hooking up a powered sub.
All my preamps are older w no dedicated rca to sub.
Dislike the wiring amp to sub, then speakers from sub to amp.
is there a better way?

Ok, found an absolute steal on a BIC AMERICA V1020 sub.
A steal!!!
My only quarrel is with my preamp, there is no sub hookup, so I will have to do the speaker wire to sub, and back to amplifier thing, which sucks.
i much prefer the rca from sub to preamp, but nope,.
is there an easier way........besides getting a new pre. My pre is wicked! McCormack LD-2 , a great pre! |
Large room, 16-17” vaulted ceilings.
Left speaker (from couch) faves open hallway, staircase
right speaker in corner,
does it matter where a small small sub goes? |
First sub in 20 years.
first was a 12” cerwin vega front firing
long times ago.
Hoping this will add some low end.
Even. My sanders sound pre does not have a sub iinput,
or my old onkyo p308.
Such a shame, I. Have to do the wiring exchange for the sub.
I very much like the rca automatic sub thing, but my gear won’t allow it.
and no I’m not changing, my stereo sounds amazing, and took me 35 years to get where I’m at these days. |

Just checked the website, the speaker terminal hookup “is” a high pass filter.
Monoblocks to speaker terminals on back of sub,......then speaker terminals to tower speakers. This is how I will hook up.
Only problem is the long speaker cable runs,
thanks for all your help. |
Ok, talked with Patrick from McCormack audio this evening.
I’ll set up the sub, and use a single rca from one of the main out rca’s to the single rca of the sub.
This will b all I need, just a little bit of low end, to balance out the sound.
Full range for the towers, and just a little bit from the sub, configured by the knob on back of the sub for the frequency.
I just need a little bit of low end to balance out the sound, as it sounds great as it is, so just adding a small 10” sub will balance out the sound perfectly.
thanks for all ur help guys! |
