In Reply to: RE: Help me diagnose REL subwoofer issue. posted by airtime on January 17, 2017 at 07:16:17
Thanks for your response, Charles. I have experienced the same reduced output from the one sub when using it by itself or as a pair with the other. I use the high level connection to my tube monoblocs using the connection arrangement recommended by REL; they are and have been connected properly. I am surprised by the REL tech's contention that if it works at all it is fine since I have experienced output level issues with power amps in the past; so, I don't understand why the amp in the sub would be immune to similar issues.
Follow Ups:
High level connection? If that means what I think it does, straight from amplifier output? Don't do that if you can help it. Feed it at preamplifier levels even if you have to use Y connectors and see how they sound.
I will explain why. First you are adding amplifier distortion, when you don't need to. Second, it could be the problem in the one sub is only in the attenuation circuit, which you could potentially bypass.
If all the settings are the same then your plate amp has a problem.
