The confusion is that the sub is 8 ohm. Do I connect it with my speakers to the 4 ohm or connect to the 8 ohm outputs. My guess is to connect them to the same as the speakers but I don't want to guess on this.
Make sure you check with McIntosh to connect a REL sub with Speakon cables properly. When they connected the REL G1 to my 1.2ks one of the wires was connected to a screw in the chassis and not one of the speaker taps. The learned here can explain why, something to do with the design of certain Mac amps.
