Please, if one wishes to connect a Stereomour II amplifier to two (2) Pipettes and two (2) Subettes, with two (2) Sublime amplifiers –

What are the interconnects required, and what is the connection path?

Stereomour II to Pipettes uses standard spade lug style speaker cables. Same for Sublime to Subette. To connect the Stereomour II to the Sublime input jacks you need an RCA to dual banana plug cable. The banana plug end will plug into the banana jacks on the tops of the speaker binding posts of the StereomourII.  The RCA end plugs into either RCA jack on the Sublime. Here’s a link to a suitable cable.

Thank you; I had to wrap my head around an amplifier's speaker outputs connecting to external main speakers and concurrently connecting to another amplifier via that second amplifier's RCA input(s).

The load from the Sublime amp on the Stereomour output is so much lighter than that from the Pipette speakers that it changes the output loading on the Stereomour very little. So you can put the Pipette load and the Sublime load in parallel like this. I brought the exact system you describe home from our studio last week. It's sitting here in the dining room, fed by an Echo Dot. Works quite nicely.
