om13934 Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I'm trying to run both an rw12 and the vx4 off of my receiver's lfe output. I'm running the single cable to a splitter. From the splitter, one cable runs straight to the lfe input on the rw12 and the other runs to another splitter to supply the feed to the left and right inputs in the MK. For some reason, they run fine sepparately, but when I hook them up in this fashion, I get nothing. Please help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrWho Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Try feeding the Mk without using the splitter (so plug into just the L or R input). If that fixes your problem, then you know the summing-circuit on the MK is somehow shorting the signal with the RW-12 input. Theoretically this setup should work though. You do have both in the "on" mode and not in that auto standby mode right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinlwilliams67 Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I have an RSW 15 and RSW 12, I run LFE into RSW 15 with splitter than ran LFE out of RSW 15 to LFE in on RSW 12. Does either sub have an LFE output, if so I would try the LFE out rather than the splitter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

om13934 Posted July 6, 2005 Author Share Posted July 6, 2005 no, neither have an output...otherwise, that would have been the first thing I tried. I'll try just feeding the L or R input on the M&K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
om13934 Posted July 6, 2005 Author Share Posted July 6, 2005 Kinda narrowed down the problem, any time I plug in a cable to the other side of my splitter, it somehow sucks all the signal to that side of the splitter or something because my RW then gets absolutely NO signal. It won't even auto on with a cable plugged in to the other end of the first splitter. It could be my cable. The first cable and splitter are definately sub cables, but the others may just be regular rca cables...not optimized for low frequencies. I don't know if that makes a difference or not, but something is not quite right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its plugged in, its on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
