I've ordered 2x Rel T7x's

My amplifier is a Nad T778 that I use as 2 channel stereo only

I have the T778 connected to my Emotiva XPA Gen3 power amplifier via preouts

I want the Rel subwoofers to be calibrated via onboard Dirac of my T778

Is it just a case of running RCA cables from Sub1 and sub2 RCA outputs to the Rels?

I'm reading lots about low level and high level connections!, With yellow cables = Confused

This is 100% 2 channel stereo listening

Anyone advise?

:)

The subs compliment my mains (Tannoy precision 6.4)...in looks and I got a great deal on both Rels together for £1400

I don't want huge bass, just controlled and Rels are great at this.

The bass in my Tannoys is a little boomey

Thanks

I agree with you totally, but I can afford them, love the look over any other subwoofer. I will have crossovers so the subs are working more than my floorstanders.

My floorstanders go lower, but the bass on them isn't the cleanest, so the Rels will not only improve on the bass, I believe they will open the soundstage up more in my lounge, taking the grunt off my Tannoys, as my Tannoys bass seems to lesson the current soundstage as it dampenes, vocals etc.

My Tannoys are end game speakers that I love. I also bought iso-acoustic feet for £500, so I'm that daft type of guy.

With the Rels + feet + Dirac, if I can create 10% improvement I will be happy for life.

But logically you are 100% correct :)

I'm just in love with my speakers and the look of the Rels and size keeps the wife happy as well
