Dreamliner, can you tell me how you have connected
You've got to quote people so they know your trying to talk to them.
The iNukes are great amplifiers. The 6000 is essentially 2 bridged 3000's. My 6000 is running 2 Empires and my 6000 gain knob is at about "10 o-clock" and my Audyssey calibrated level came in at -4dB, so plenty of power.
MAKE SURE YOU REGISTER THE WARRANTY RIGHT AWAY ON THE BEHRINGER TO GET THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY OTHERWISE THEY ONLY WARRANTY IT FOR 1 YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have mine setup as 1 channel per sub, but if you get the 3000, you could bridge it if you only have 1 sub.
I have not yet configured my DSP, I just volume matched in Audyssey.
Basically, instead of a RCA cable going to your sub, you'll need a speaker wire instead. I just took my plate amp off, used 2 spade connectors to terminate the subwoofer wire that I cut off the plate amp. Then I used 2 more spade connectors for the speaker cable at the subwoofer and used a terminal strip to connect the two. This way I can easily disconnect the subwoofer from the wire if I ever need to. (I tried looking for a cable mount solution where I could use banana plugs on the speaker wire side and "female banana plugs" on the subwoofer side, but couldn't find anything. Ideally, I'd like to make a blank metal plate to replace the plate amp and mount a banana plug receptacle on it, but the following works just great.)
IF THE ENCLOSURE IS SEALED OFF FROM THE AMP AND YOU COMPLETELY REMOVE YOUR OLD PLATE AMP:
(Some subs need the plate in place to complete the seal, the Empires has MDF around the amp so I completely removed them)
If you completely physically remove the Epik amp: Use a "terminal strip" like this at the subs:
If you completely physically remove the Epik amp: Use "spade connectors" like this at the sub:
ALTERNATIVE #1
If you physically leave your old Epik Amp in place and it has speaker terminals and you can re-purpose those then I'd do that. It will then have the same type of connectivity as your other speakers.
(If you do this option, you do not need the terminal strip or spade connectors)
(You also might need to make the speaker wires longer for this option, so check before ordering)
ALTERNATIVE #2
If you physically leave your old Epik Amp in place, you can remove one of the XLR connectors on the plate and replace it with a "Speakon Panel Mount":
(If you do this option, you do not need the terminal strip or spade connectors)
(You also might need to make the speaker wires longer for this option, so check before ordering)
Buy "Speakon connectors" like these for the amp end of the speaker wire:
The Behringer uses 1/4" TRS connectors, so you'll need adapters from your RCA preouts on your receiver.
If you want one simple cable, It will look like this and is called a "1/4 TS to Male RCA" cable:
If you already have RCA cables, get and adapter like this:
I have 2 subwoofer outputs on my receiver so I used 2 of these cables/adapters. Since you only have 1 sub, you only need 1 cable. If you get the 3000 with only 1 sub, I think you could run 1 cable to the amplifier and configure the DSP to BRIDGE mode. Manual page 7:

If you ever run 2 subs, using 2 cables is less confusing if your receiver has 2 outputs. My amp is operating is DUAL mode (Page 7).
All these links/pics I've sent are not the exact one to buy, just what I could quickly find to show you what your looking for. Also, none of the pics are "to scale".
It isn't hard, just be patient.
