Subwoofer with XP-22 in unity gain


Given the Pass Labs XP-22 is set for Unity Gain on input 1, can I connect my sub to an RCA output and be able to feed the subwoofer?

Notes:

  1. I am not using volume control on the MSB DAC
  2. I currently have the sub plugged into the AVR
  3. I know there is no real point to the XP-22 in the diagram - still want to know if this will work tho

@goleksiak, the 89db setting is just telling the user where on the volume scale is 0db, i.e. no gain or attenuation.  Also, if you set input 1 at 89, all other inputs by default will be set at 89. This could be a recipe for disaster.  Why not use the Home Theatre pass thru on input 5??

Please read your manual more carefully.  Input 5 is the Home Theatre (unity gain) pass thru function.
