That sub has no high pass filter,so anyway you decide to hook it up the speakers will still be running full range.
Sub-woofer connection question
Hi all,
I have a Music-Hall a15.3 integrated amp and a JL Audio 8" "Dominion" powered sub-woofer.
The sub-woofer has speaker-level inputs (R & L, + & -) but also has line-level RCA inputs.
The amp has an RCA out as well as (of course) speaker-level out.
So I can connect the RCA out of the amp into the RCA in of the sub-woofer, but I can also piggy-back off the amp’s speaker connections to the sub-woofer’s speaker-level inputs.
I am not sure which method is better. I called Music-Hall and the guy (maybe it was Roy Hall but I am not sure) told me "I don’t like sub-woofers... just do what ever the sub-woofer manufacturer says".
But the JL Audio manual does not specify one method over the other.
I am new to sub-woofers, so I was hoping maybe somebody on the forum might be able to help.
Thanks in advance,
Eric Zwicky
