Thanks for your help
Unfortunately, like in my situation, my Rel does not have XLR stereo inputs either.

Therefore you will have to use RCA out from the C2500 to your DB1. The C2500 has both RCA and XLR outputs on all three of his outputs and they are all hot all the time. Your main output would be the XLR's going to your main 2 channel amplifier. Use the Output 1 RCA's to connect to the sub. Then make sure you turn on Output 1 on the front of the C2500.

You should be up and running at that point. Though I would have preferred to have XLR all the way around, everything still sounds great.

Edward
