Pairing Lyngdorf 2170 with REL T9x

I’m attempting to add a pair of REL T9x to my Lyngdorf 2170 and I’m having a hell of a time. 
I’ve tried connecting from analog out to the REL as Lyngdorf suggests in the manual but that results in silence.
I’ve tried the splicing of the yellow and red wires together of the REL and attaching them to the red speaker terminals on the Lyngdorf with the black wire floating/attached to chassis as REL suggests and that results in a pop and hum. 
Anyone paired the Lyngdorf with subs? Any suggestions? Thanks

You need to follow step 2

 
Next, connect a long RCA-RCA interconnect from either an unused input on a preamp or receiver to the REL’s .1/LFE input. Do this even if you have no interest in theater, you are creating an audio ground, nothing more. This is true for 2-channel systems, we are not using the .1 LFE input for anything more than to produce ground.

I'm not running class d but I found this to be a necessary step for me.
