All,
Im confused in regards to how I should wire the PT-100 and my GE Tritons 3s.
1. Should I use the LFE connection from each speaker powered sub to the individual SUB OUTS or utilize a splitter and connect to one of the sub outs on the PT100? 2. Are the regular stereo outs FULL range? (thus not needing the LFE connections)?
Anyone with a similar setup? Would appreciate any guidance with this.

Golden Ear will recommend just using the speaker wires to the speaker input terminals to your Tritons and let the built in DSP and crossover do the subwoofer management. You will need to run the PT 100's speaker output as large speakers, or you won't get the LFE signal to the Tritons. Simpler and less signal loss from using a splitter and no extra cables to buy or hide.

Anybody? Thanks!

The PT-100 always runs full range, no bass management in it, but added outputs for subs with built in crossovers.

I’m not sure how the Tritons work, the signal will be full range, so it will only work if the Tritons have a low pass filter of some sort ( something g that cuts the signal to the appropriate range).

I use a pt-100 on my definitive 9060 towers and the mains are full range. Leave the Tritons hooked up with speaker wire only and leave LFE unhooked. Just hook up rca from amp into pt-100 mains.
