Luxman 505uxii Class A/B operation
I’m. It sure I’m understanding.  I’ve seen on other websites is a Class A/B  
Klipsch Cornwall IV and Luxman Integrated
I know this post is old but for posterities sake I’ll leave a comment: I have the Luxman 505uxii (class A/B) on my Forte IV’s. Sounds amazing. Super clean and controlled. The sound is large and lifelike. I’ve tried low power tube amps from Decwar... 
Finally got a Luxman
Yes. The kit is made by Klipsch. The only thing that is different is they changed the speaker cabinet base, otherwise it ends up being the same speaker (the forte IV). Takes about 2 hours to install.   you will need 2 kits: https://paducahhomet...

Yeah, zero regrets. This thing just sound magnificent!  I went for nothing. Can’t even imagine what the higher-ups sound like. Maybe if I hit the lottery;)  
REL Hum. Stumped
Ok solved it!   The clue was the fact when I moved the stock cable around it would pick up hum next to certain devices so I assumed EMI.  So I made shielded cable   I bought some 4 strand shielded copper cable from Home Depot. This cable has 4 ... 
REL Hum. Stumped

Recommend a non-polite sounding amp / integrated
I have the Technics SU-G700mk2. It replaces and betters the vintage BAT VK-3ixSE pre with AR-V35 tube amp. It does exact what you are requesting. I do run this amp on my Forte III’s. I have not tried it on my Thiel CS2.4’s yet. The sound is powerf... 
REL .LFE input
I did. No joy.   
REL .LFE input
Well the wiring checked out to be good.       
REL .LFE input
I did check with REL, they gave me the same responses as in the video that was posted above, which I tried, and yet has not worked. I will look at the cable though and the internal wiring and such, that seems like a good place to look.   
REL .LFE input
I did. I tried floating it and connecting it to the grounding lug on the amp.   
REL .LFE input
Thanks for the responses.   The REL only has one input so I can’t do left and right. I do not have any TV components hooked into my integrated it’s just a turntable and a streamer and all of these pieces of equipment plugged into the same outlet ... 
Go get out your pitchforks, I’ve done a sacrilegious thing. . .
I get it. You don’t like EQ’s. Not sure that’s relevant.
