rel with monoblocks


I would appreciate input of any owners of rel st series 2 owners who have monoblocks. I am considering upgrading to monoblocks of a yet to be determined type, but my rel studio 2 instructions say that to use it with monoblocks, you must use a rel for each channel. To me it seems that as long as the rel cable would reach both amps it should be no different than connecting it to the back of a stereo amp. Any thoughts?

I know this is an old post, but in case others come across this post. I just purchased a single  Rel 212SE and will be using them with (2) Mcintosh MC601 mono blocks (fully balanced) I will not be connecting them in the manor described above. Not sure if your amps are balanced or not or if that even matters but REL certainly discourages the practice. I plan to run the outputs form my processor to the sub, and keep things on the safe side.. its not worth causing any damage to my amps or the sub. I have a rule. If the manufacture of the product warns about a connection type I typically will follow their advice. Good luck with your Sub.
