Sub out in creek intergrated

barfind · 21st September 2006, 08:14 AM

Hi folks, I want to put a sub out into my creek intergrated amp. This is not that hard is it. Do I just take a feed off the volume control?
I can post a pic if thats easier.
Thanks Nigel

You need to tap off the volume control and add a low-pass filter to suit your sub, unless your sub has a low-pass filter already inside. In which case the new output would be a fullrange pre-out.

Hi,
do you mean to take a feed from the Creek to a sub unit?

The volume control is not the best place.

What input does the sub need? Line level or speaker level?

Does the Creek have a pre output? Split pre and power, either with an external link or an internal link?

Does the sub have it's own low pass filter ( half a crossover) or
does it have outputs to drive the satellites (full crossover)?

Ok thanks guys, I will be more specific. I want to go to a sub plate amp low level. The amp doesn't have a pre out. I am not sure whether this amp has an internal pre/power link or not. I will try to find out.

Thanks
Nigel
