Sublime Acoustic K231 Stereo 3-Way Active Crossover w/ REL subwoofers


Is there anyone out there using one of these passive crossovers with their REL’s? If so, which cables are you running from the unit to the REL’s?

Do you run everything from the unbalanced RCA in and outs or, both, balanced 1/4” and unbalanced RCA’s. The manual says that “The diagrams show both balanced and unbalanced connections, but for each channel you should use only one or the other."

My REL’s only have RCA inputs but it doesn’t make sense to use a balanced XLR cable with adapters, or have a custom cables made up with 1/4” TRS-style connectors on one end and RCA’s on the other.

Thanks everyone. I wanted to use my existing balanced XLR interconnects, so I ordered 1/4” TRS to XLR adapters, but they did not fit on the unit plugged in side-by-side. So, I had Wayne at Blue Jeans Cable make me short jumper adapter cables instead. I also had Wayne put together RCA subwoofer cables for my REL’s. I don’t notice any issues using the balanced section of the K231 for my In’s and Mid/Hi outs and the unbalanced section for my REL subwoofers.
