Jeff Rowland with Rel sub

I recently purchased a Jeff Rowland Concerto integated amp. While the amp is incredible, I cannot figure out how to hook up my Rel Strata sub. Something is different about the Rowland that makes it more tricky or maybe impossible, so any help would be appreciated. When I contacted Rowland they suggested getting in touch with Sumiko. When I contacted Sumiko they said to get in touch with Rowland. Anyone have the same problem? Solutions? Thanks, Jerry

I connected according to the directions in the owner's manual: FIG 2 unbalanced high level input at the sub. To the amp: red to right positive, black to right negative and yellow to left positive. Todster, I tried your suggestion and got nothing.

I am currently using the Concerto Int. with a REL B-3 sub connected via the Neutrix interconnect. Fabulous results.

I had the same problem with my JRDG 201 monos. The fix was simple, you have to lift the grounds on the Rowland. Use a cheater plug on the AC chord. I also have to disconnect my HT processor to the RCA input on the sub when listening to 2-channel. Of course, I'm using the Neutrix connection to speaker out on the amps for 2-channel music listening.
