      Just run a set of RCA cables from the second output of the RC995 to the inputs on the sub. Your sub should have a volume and crossover to help blend it into your main speakers.

          Noob with a sub-woofer question.
          by Falcongaurd
          Hi!
          Thanks for taking time to read my post. I am building a house, and in it will be a home theater. My low voltage guy installed the wiring, and told me my sub woofer outlets would be coax. Well, my existing out of the box HT system has a regular powered sub, connecting with speaker wire. How...

          Rotel RSX-972 / RB980BX combo (review)

          Great Budget Combo....
          I used to be a stero junkie, must have owned 25-30 different stereo systems always looking for that perfect sound. That was until I found Rotel and specifically the RB980BX poweramp (which goes ever so well with my Newform Research Ribbon speakers). This setup met all...

          RC1070 or RC995 matched w/ RB991
          by luszer
          Interested if anyone has an RB1080 or 991 teamed up with either RC1070 or older pre-amp such as RC995. In doing research, a used RC955 costs about same as a new RC1070. Wait are the differences and sonic characters on either pre-amp? Any info greatly appreciated. Tyring to make a hard decision on investing...
