Just get a couple of used RELs for cheap...that's what I've done and they work perfectly.
Subwoofer Basics Help
I am thinking about adding a subwoofer to my system but don't fully understand how I would connect it to my Rega Osiris amp which doesn't have a second signal output other than record out. Will a sub work through the record out path? If not that only leaves me the option of using the speaker out terminals. Is there an issue running the sub off the same output as my speakers Naim NBLs? Will my NBLs be compromised? If I have to run the setup this way am I looking for a passive sub? What is the price point that gets you into a decent sub?

If you have variable outputs , call SVS subwoofers they can walk you through it and from $600 on up they have a nice app to control your settings from your seating area which is very handy. And comes with Free shipping and a 45 day trial and 5 year transferrable warranty. If later youdecidetogeta2 nd sub you can monies off. |
I have the REGA Aethos and had the same issue. Ended up using this volume control. https://www.ebay.com/itm/264143836049 Connect from RECORED OUT to this then out to subwoofer. Works very well to control the sound level of the sub. Each recording has different bass content so using this small control makes it very easy to adjust bass. Placed the control on top of my shelf within easy reach.

I’ve 300B SET mono blocks and run Rythmik and Rel sub pairs. Both brands are nice, but the small RELs have modest SPL with limited flexibility. REL is speaker level input; Rythmik is both. As I understand your connections, a high quality line splinter of turntable out can allow ready connection to sub and to power amp. |
