Eandylee - I don't own the Rel sub, but I do have a question. Is it possible to not use the high level input, only use the low level (LFE), and allow the 561 to handle the low frequency "crossing guard" duties for both stereo and HT? Plus, like you said, use the Rel internal crossover at 38 hz. This should eliminate the extra bass from the high level side because the high level signal is eliminated.
Its just a thought.
