Monoblock amps and REL Series R Sub-Base Systems, Revisisted


Has there been anything new on running a single REL-328 (or similar) with multiple (2) monoblock amplifiers since this topic was discussed back in 2010? I'm hoping to add an REL-328 to my current system which is running two (one for right channel and one for left channel) Marantz MA-500 monoblock amplifiers. I've seen numerous suggestions on how to connect this combination of components despite REL stating otherwise. Has anyone seen success with this over time? Is there a possibility of causing damage to the amplifiers?
Thanks

Possibly you’ve checked or seen...

They provide some logic around why 2 subs are their recommendation, but it didn’t seem that it was a connection limitation or use.

I run my REL via LFE out of my DEQX, so I no longer use the hi-level neutrik setup.  I did run it off of my monoblocks at one point, unsuccessfully, as it created a hum and the amp manufacturer recommended adding some external component to address...which at that point I was no longer interested.
