How to hook up a Passive Sub??

[Dylanl]

I have a Denon 4800 Receiver with two LFE outs. I bought a Behringer amp with 1/4 and XLR inputs. How do i get the sub out to the inputs?

Thanks

Forgot to mention that I think I can use RCA to 1/4" jacks but will I get a ground loop hum? If so how would I deal with it?

RCA-1/4" should be fine.

RCA-1/4" should be fine.

Will I get ground loop hum and if so what do I do?

Unlikely. I've used RCA to 1/4" and RCA to XLR with a few different "pro" amps in my home system and never had hum problems. Neutrik makes nice XLR and 1/4" plugs that don't cost arms and legs, if you want to make up your own cables. The amp manual may have diagrams of suitable cable wiring.

I had some hum issues hooking up my EP2500. Give the "off the shelf" adapters a shot. If you have hum issues, you may need to customize a couple of cables. Go here for more information:

Have any of you ever used a product like this to get a better match between pro gear and home audio gear?

I have 1/4" to RCA adapters on my EQ, no hum issues there.
