Title: Subwoofer with Kaiju
Post by: mpdd on March 17, 2017, 02:49:18 PM

I have a Foreplay pre amp and Kaiju amp running a pair of Lowther drivers, I purchased a pair of Rythmik subs to augment the bass. Each subwoofer has a left and right rca in. Can I run the power conductor from each left and right channel on the Kaiju and use a common ground from the ground lug in the Kaiju?

Use an RCA splitter on your preamp and RCA cables to your woofer amps.

Depending on your Rythmik subs, there is a built in high pass filter.  I run these myself.  My set up goes preamp to sub, sub to power amps.

The Foreplay pre amp actually has two sets of "out" RCA's, I connected a set of interconnects with a y to each sub. It works great. The Rythmik subs integrate very well with the 102db Lowther's. I couldn't be happier with my system now. Thanks to Bottlehead for making such great products and having the patience to walk some of us through our own mistakes building their great kits.
The Foreplay is seamless and the Kaiju really makes the Lowther's sing. Thanks all.
