REL .LFE input


I just purchased the Technics SU-G700 integrated and it has a left and right pre-out that can be used for a subwoofer - my REL. 

 

I’m currently using the high level connection but thought about trying the LFE connection as a way to reduce a very low level hum I’m getting in the subwoofer. No amount of connecting he system to one power outlet or grounding has solved it, and it only happens once the speakon connection is connected to the subwoofer. 

My only issue with this LFE solution is that there is only one single input on the subwoofer, but the pre-out is in stereo. The question is how much audio low bass information am I losing if I only run one RCA from, say,  the right channel on the integrated to the sub.

BTW, this is a dedicated two channel set up, not used for TV.

My understanding is bass around 100hz and under is not stereo. 
 

If you want to be sure just buy a 2 into 1 splitter. LH and RH outputs will be summed into a single plug for your sub. 

Why not just use the left and right low level inputs? Or does your REL not have them?

Thanks for the responses.
 

The REL only has one input so I can’t do left and right. I do not have any TV components hooked into my integrated it’s just a turntable and a streamer and all of these pieces of equipment plugged into the same outlet onto a dedicated line.

I’ll try just plugging one of the outputs from the integrated into the LFE input and see what happens if the hump persists I’m not sure where to go from there.
