I was looking at both REL and JL Audio but ended up with Rythmik. I liked the fast servo sub and connect low level from my amp to the sub. My Parasound A21 has an RCA connection for both Left and Right channel and variable gain adjustment and connects directly to each stereo subwoofer(s). I push full range to my speakers and it seems to be easier to blend the low/mid low freqs between the sub and speaker.
Does a REL subwoofer make the speakers' job easier?
Gentlemen,
Let’s assume we are following REL’s recommendation by connecting the sub to the amp instead of the preamp through the high-level connection. Then which one of these two would be true?
1. The sub would make the speakers’ job easier by not sending the low bass signal (i.e., below the crossover point) to them.
2. The signal sent to the speakers would still include the low bass even when the sub is used. Therefore the speakers would still receive the full range signal.
If (1) is true, how is it accomplished electrically? I am asking this as someone who has little knowledge about how the signal flow between amp and speakers works.
Thanks in advance!
