REL with Primare question...


1st post on the Gon, thank you all for being a tremendous resource as I’ve set up my system!

I have a REL Q150e, and primare pre and amp (SP 31.7 & A30.2). I called REL and was informed that I cannot use the “high-level” method of wiring the sub, due to the Primare amp’s dual balanced mono design.  The Primare pre seems to lack a “both” setting for the subwoofer, meaning it sends no signal besides LFE thru the sub output- unless I’m just setting it up wrong.

I use XLR cables between the pre and power amp, leaving a pair of RCA main-out unused.  Can I use these to get full signal to the REL, is there a detriment to the sound in any way going to the main speakers, and do I use a y adapter at the preamp with the single line in on the REL?

Thanks,
Chris

You should talk to Primare first!  The black wire at the amp end is the issue..Go to Google and look for connection of a REL (high level) to a 
dual balanced mono design.
