    Hi:

    If your sub has two lfe inputs use a Y adapter from your receiver to the sub.

    Ya, like the thread responded to earlier. Both my sub's have a left and right lfe inputs so it just make since to use them. Just my logic I guess. :)

    guys-

    Are you sure you have 2 (unfiltered) LFE imputs?
    Usually you have a filtered and a unfiltered.
    The left and rights are the rca imputs and they are filtered. So unless you have an unfiltered
    sub-out on your receiver, you are filtering the signal twice.

    Thanks Goingganzo, you nailed that one. I explained that to people before. Some subs also have more than one speaker like my PSW1200. I do not really understand the whole confusion of the filtered unfiltered thing. You have a sub out on the amp and a input in on the sub. That is the basics. So if it is filtered twice I havent noticed.
