In my system, which is two channel, I use the RCA outs from my preamp to the sub. The sub's low pass filter is set at 50Hz. I use the balanced outs for my main speakers and they run full range. This works very well and there is no crossover to muck up the sound of my mains.
Using Krell rca & bal outputs for the same channel
Why would I do that?
My sub has a highpass filter above 65hz. The dedicated sub channel can have info above that. So how can I get the missing freqs above 65hz. I can get a second sub but I’d rather not.
Since Krell’s RCA & balanced outputs are active at the same time, I can send the sub channel to another speaker using a Y cable to get the missing info. I’m thinking if I must use a Y cable and overtax a speaker with sub info, I’d send it to a rear speaker.
Does anyone know if using both outputs will affect the sound? The manual says that both outputs are active but to connect using only one. Will there be impedance issues? I also have an Audyssey EQ between the PrePro and the amp, so I would use the Y cable from sub and one of the rear to the EQ’s rear channel which will turn the analog signal into digital for EQing and back to analog for the amp.
