thanks reubent, your right, i will try them both ways. these speakers are very tube/low power friendly. the previous owner, a great goner jeff, used low power set 300b amp and enjoyed. i welcome any ones thoughts. i agree,that a better sub woulf help, but this is just a fun project for me, as my other systems are much more flexible but this is my first effort without an rca out to the sub.
connecting sub to integrated with no rca out
i have a little dared tube/mosfet hybrid(precursor of fatman itube} bookshelves with 13wpc but not a sub out or any rca out. am using fostex 126 bookshelves with a little 8" sub that has all desired connections. what do you suggest as hookup options for this combo? i am concerned that running the speaker cable in to the sub and then out to the speakers will add sub electronics to the path that will spoil the speaker amp synergy.
