Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo Connecting Integrated Amp to Sub

Disconnecting one of the pre-amp O/Ps from the amp, silences the sub completely.

Using the preouts from the amp to drive the sub should work fine. Have you disconnected the mains and see if you can hear anything from the sub?

Unfortunately, there is no manual with this Chinese knock-off integrated amp. I'll try all the suggestions you made.

Many thanks to you and all the other guys for the good suggestions. Looks like I've a busy Friday night ahead of me.

This link provides many different set-up options with diagrams. Hopefully, it'll help.

I see in the article that they joined together the right and left signal out of the amp. It has been my understanding this is not the best thing to do.

Well, shoot, maybe my link won't help.

I had thought it would work too until someone at Hsu directed me to the same link.

I just did that, and the sub outputs very distorted audio and low-level thunder or hum.

Thanks very much for your suggestions EFalardeau.

The Polk may be overloading the pre-amp outs. Do you have some other way of testing them?
