Help Connecting Dual Subs To Monoblocks

Best video's I've seen that are extremely informative:https://rel.net/how-to-connect-my-rel/

Search for your specific hook-up.

Just use the standard REL setup for each of the sub/monoblocks.  The problems occur when trying to hook up a single REL sub to mono blocks, but that problem goes away when you have dual subs.

I have the Audio Mirror monos and have two 8” powered subs connected, one to each mono block. I just added an unterminated speaker wire to each amp binding post (neg to neg and pos to pos) along with the speaker wire that is connected to the speakers,  so just the signal from the amp is going to the subwoofers. Works fine and I can dial in the subs crossover and gain. My system is posted on Agon. I had preamps in the past with outputs and sub outs but I never could get the subs blended well with main speakers. This method works well for my system and room. I hope this helps!

I was wondering if that was how to do it.

@brylandgoodman I’ve been thinking of doing the same thing with two amps in mono and adding another sub. Only thing, most Rel subs incorporate a single neutrik connection and cable ends for positive, negative and neutral in a high level format. I think I remember a Rel video somewhat explaining this, but think this connection option was for using Rel pairs with a single amp? Hoping this would still apply -and still be safe- for monos using Rels.

From Rel blog: “If connecting 2 RELs, connect the black wire of each REL to a negative speaker terminal of the corresponding channel; twist together the red and yellow wires of each REL separately and connect each pair to the positive speaker terminal of the corresponding amplifier channel.”

Did Rel never give a clear answer when contacted? I might reach out to them as well as I’ve also been quite vexed by this.
