I helped a friend of mine hook up a 212/SE to his MC 402 and the final answer from REL was to use the low level input.
In their dozens of detailed online support pages:
https://rel.net/how-to-connect-my-rel/
they do not have a way to connect a fully balanced and floating amplifier to their grounded high level input. So even though they clearly indicate the low level connection is inferior, that's the only choice that works with the likes of the McIntosh MC 402 and MC 602. Other McIntosh amplifiers may be different and may work - I just don't have personal experience with them.
