Running Two REL Subs off One Amp - Possible?


I'm thinking about using two REL subs to see how big an improvement they make over a single sub for two-channel music. I'm concerned that I can't wire both subs to my single amplifier, though. Anyone know if this can be done?

Side issue: I had a dealer (not REL dealer, though) tell me the best way to use stereo subs - in most cases - is to put them in opposite corners (ie front right and back left) of the room to even out the bass throughout the room. He also stated the only way to increase output over a single sub is to put the stereo subs on top of each other or side-by-side. Is this good/correct advice?

Thanks,
Howard

I just recently added a second Rel Storm III to my Pass Labs X-350 Two channel amp. I put both the positive (+) leads from the high level connection (yellow & red) to my positive post on my speaker, then the single black negative (-) lead to the negative post. I did this for both channels (Speaker to Sub). It is cleaner looking than having all those wires running to your Amp.
I have Audio Physic Virgo II speakers. It is absolutely the best sound I have managed in my cavernous listing room. Positioning your subs is all about your room and your wife. I put my Rels right behind my Virgos, not as close to the corners as I should...(a man needs to know his limitations, wife factor not in the setup instructions from Rel). The Cherry finish of both Manufacturers match well... so I'm also a good boy!

Antonio,

I currently run my ACI Titan from my RLD-1's second set of outputs, but the REL subs are specifically designed to be run off the amplifier using the high-level connection rather than the low-level connection from a preamp.

I enjoy my system so much it's hard to bring myself to tinker with it, but of course I can hear some things that I know could be better, so the tinkering goes on...

An REL sub or two and the Ridge Street Sasons will round out my system for my lifetime, though. Well, until wire is reinvented or some format vastly superior to CD comes out. :)
Aggielaw, Running the high level input to your speaker terminals is just a cleaner shortcut when connecting two subs.. Works great when you don't need to pick up both (+) positive terminals on your Amp.
