I just got two REL S/510. When I connect them the correct way, I hear a VERY loud huuumee.
This is a known issue and can be fixed with connecting the black wire from the REL sub to ground on the amp,
As I understand it, newer models of the BHK 250 has a grounding post.
How can I add a grounding post to my BHK? Can you answer that @Paul ?
I really need to fix itbefore I can use the subs.
The subs are also connected to my AV receiver using LFE.1 RCA.
Found this picture of a chassis ground terminal. I want one
I’ve since sold my BHK250 but as I recall it was just a matter of screwing them into previously threaded/tapped screw holes. It came with directions, a super easy install.
Slick, I’m jazzed we got it to you so quickly. Any chance you could post a picture with the instructions? I got a request from someone up here to post but I don’t have an easy way to post them.
Waiting for my ground post from PS Audio.
The ground post will only help with hum when the amp is on.
To remove the hum when the amp is in standby mode, you need two special Y-cables from REL.
I am going to make them myself.
You need 4 1K ohm resistors and some connectors for the ground post and speaker terminals.
It’s going to be very crowded on the back of the amp.
From the REL sub, yellow+red twisted goes to the plus terminal. black goes to the ground post.
The REL Y-cable. Attached to the ground. Then the two ends with the 1 Kohm goes to the plus and minus speaker terminals. Se attached picture
