Rotel RA-1572 sub out?
@panaseef AFAIK, the two sub-outputs output a mono (sum of left and right) full-range signals without filtering, you’ll need to use an external low-pass filter or the built-in filter that comes with the active subwoofer.

Volume Problem Trouble Shooting Ideas?
IMO, the speaker cables are unlikely to be the culprit. In order to diagnose the problem, my suggestion is to bypass the preamp and use a BlueSound Node to connect directly to the power amplifier. Use the BlueSound Node to control the volume. If ...
