REL subwoofer with old McIntosh tube gear?

I have had a REL Storm III with a McIntosh MC275 mkIV. Was wired from the speaker terminals in the amp into the REL, as the preferred method by the manufacturer. So this is bass reinforcement at the lower levels. The amp still try to reproduce the whole spectrum. I was very happy with it.

Having said that, I replaced the ReL with two Rythmik subs and I'm happier, and I'm thinking it might be best to have a crossover between amp and preamp so to avoid the low freqs from getting into the amp and let the subs reproduce them.

Thanks, tried grounding to chassis to no avail. I'll try the two prong idea...thanks much.

Two prong adapter made the hum much louder...:/

Try using the adapter on your Mc amplifier and be sure amp and sub are plugged into the same outlet.

You are trying to solve system hum with a sub? How does the thinking go?
