Rel subwoofer high level connections with McIntosh integrated amp


Hi all

Have anyone connected a Rel subwoofer via high level connection on a McIntosh integrated amp? I m running my speaker off the 8 ohm on the back of my amp. How do you connected the high level from the sub and the speakers. Thx

using the high level inputs uses the higher voltage into a high impedance input circuit. Due to the high impedance, almost nothing taken away from the speaker output to feed the sub input. Its essentially 'free' with no downside. The amplifier you are tapping from will never know the difference between the straight speaker load and the very minor additional load imposed by the input circuitry in the subwoofers. Enjoy and crank it for me :)
