ProAc ER1 sub connections to Aktiv Amps

Hi All,

I just purchased a ProAc ER1 subwoofer and am wondering about the best setup.
I have L + R Low frequency RCA's directly connected to one set of the Pre outs on my Linn Wakonda Preamp and it seems fine.
I have a problem with the High frequency setup, the only other connection is the HF connection which is a Neutric(sp) connector.

Here is the problem.

I have 3 Aktiv Amps, Treble, Mid and Bass.

How do I connect the Neutric HF connector? Which amp?

Anyone have any ideas.

Amps are Linn LK100 x 2 and LK85

Your Wakonda has two pairs of RCA outputs. One pair would go to the sub and the other would feed any of the amps. Daisy chain the other amps from there as each has an RCA output as well as an RCA input.

That's the way I have it now, I am wondering which amp to run the HF Neutric connection. The HF needs to be connected to speaker outs from the amp. I am wondering if the amps being Aktiv will be a problem, and which amp to connect to.

Sorry, I've never encountered a Neutric connection. Any line out RCA from any amp is the same as one of the two RCA line outs from your preamp. That means it is a full spectrum line level signal.

Based on your opening statement I assumed you had the sub working fine. Where in the world does this Neutric connection that needs the HF speaker out information go to? The speaker out would mean an amplified signal meant to drive a tweeter. At least that's how I'm reading your post.
