I’m connecting a pair of JBL C60PS/T subwoofers to my amp. My system has 2 amps each running 2 pairs of jbl pendants. 
1. Do I connect the pair of subs to only 1 amp? Or 1 sub to each amp? 
2. What do I need to connect the wires from subs to RCA out on amp?

Hi @cjcowden.

Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the community! We’d be glad to help.

Amp has an auto-detecting RCA subwoofer output with a user-adjustable 50-110 Hz crossover. Simply connect your subwoofer to the Amp’s RCA output labeled SUB

NOTE: The subwoofer output is disabled when Amp is being used to power surround speakers for a Sonos home theater product.

Let me know how that goes.

Hello, the article didn’t address my issue. My sub is actually a pair, so I have 2 that need to be connected. So do I connect both to one amp or one to each of my 2 amps? I already have 2 pair of speakers connected to both amps. I am not too knowledgeable on audio equipment. I don’t want to overload the amps, or connect incorrectly.
