Theo, are you saying run a cable (Y) out from the processor into the paired RCA inputs in the sub? How do I incorporate using the sub for 2 channel when I use my preamp for control in the same system? It gets tricky with setup when you have limited inputs into the sub and when using a preamp as a PASSTHRU between processor and amp. Thanks. Dave
Velo DD-12 connections for 2ch/HT system
Hello,I have just purchased a DD-12. I am trying to incorporate this fine subwoofer into both a HT and a 2 channel setup. In the HT setup, I have a Myryad processor going to both a 2 channel and a 3 channel amp for 5 channels. I use a Mcintosh C2200 as a pass through unit to get sound from the 2 front channels in this setting. I also use this system for 2 channel listening. I have the previously mentioned preamp going to a 2 channel amp (MC402 from mcintosh) and out to my speakers. My question is.... how do I connect this sub for HT and 2 channel listening. Run a cable from the processor to a sub input and a balanced cable from the preamp to the sub as well? When using a preamp as a pass through can I just use a balanced cable from the preamp only and when it is used as in pass through mode, will the signal to the sub be picked up in HT from the preamp? Please clarify the best scenario in a 2 channel and HT when using a preamp as a HT pass through. Any help or advice is much appreciated.Thank you. Dave
