Correct: I am running two interconnect cables the full length from the front sub to the back sub.

The Y-connector on the outputs of the front sub is most likely your problem (unless it's a stereo connect??). It's never a good idea to short/combine outputs together unless the manuals specificaly call out that they can be connected which is not the case for the Daytons. You can damage the output drivers of you amp.

I suggest you remove both Y-connects between the front and back subs and run a single cable Red-to-Red and see what you get. If that works run a single cable White-to-White. If that works too all is well with you amps. In that case running a single cable on the Red output of the front sub to a Y-connect on the input of the back sub will work if you don't want to run an extra set of wires.

Hi Guys,

Would the new OAW3 solve my 50 ft. cable run to my back sub? How would you hook this up with two subs? Would you hard wire to the front sub and use the OAW3 to the back sub?

The OAW3 is designed specifically for the case of your 50ft cable run to the back sub.

If you had a sub in front that was easy to wire, I would suggest splitting the sub output with a Y cable. The front sub would be hard-wired from one half of the splitter, and the other half of the splitter would connect to the OAW3 transmitter. The OAW3 receiver would be connected to the back sub.

I'm seriously considering jumping on the SMS-1/OAW3 combo that Outlaw is currently offering. Hardwire from my 970 to the SMS-1. Hardwire from the SMS-1 to the front sub: about 6 feet in my setup. Wireless from the second output of the SMS-1 to the second sub.

You could do something similar although, obviously, it's more $$ than gonk's approach.

Just a follow up to the low output on my back sub. I followed EEman's recommendation on the wiring hook-up to the back sub and adjusted the phase control. I removed the Y connector from the front sub input and connected to the red only. Then used the red only output to the back sub with a Y connector to the inputs. When I removed the Y connector from the front sub input it reduced it's output a little and balanced things out.

Thanks for the advice

I also plan to order the OAW3 for my back sub. This will allow me to move the back sub around to different locations for the optimum bass response.
