I have two LSI25 towers and a PSW650 sub with an Onkyo tx=sr806 I want to hookup my sub through my speakers so I am a little puzzled:

1. using sub y-cords run from my Onkyo sub out to the Line-in? of my speakers and then run line out of the speakers to my LFE sub in.

Is this correct?

    Jeff,

    I am a little confused as to what you are trying to do. Are you trying to

    A. run all three subs using the avr's lfe output?
    B. Run in two channel stereo and utilize the crossover in the psw650 instead of the avr

    If you are using this for a HT setup, I think that the best idea would be to utilize the crossover in the lsis. Run them as large in your avr, just run your speaker cables to them, and then just use your sub as your lfe. Optimize the towers using the volume control on the built-in amp. That would be my suggestion.

    I guess just get a splitter and then run one into the psw650, which should have an output. Run the output to one lsi sub, and then the second half from the splitter to the other lsi sub. Have you tried running them full range out of curiosity?

    I have but the guy from Audyssey convinced me that having all 3 subs running is the best for my system. I will split it and see what sounds better and then decide.
