Help with receiver or pre

My current setup is a NAD pre with an Adcom 545 amp and SDA 2A's. I have been pretty happy with this setup for 10+ years now using it for both music and HT. But I was just given an SVS PB-10isd and the NAD pre does not have a sub output.
Currently looking at the Outlaw 975 but curious what you guys think. I do not think I would be adding any surround sound to my setup, but you never know. wondering if I would be better off getting a receiver with pre-outs just in case I decide to add surround sound speakers.
Any advice or recommendations?

You could always just use two y cables from your left and right preouts and run it into the sun that way. Otherwise if you have speaker level inputs there is another option.
If your happy with your setup I'm sure there is a way to add the sub without changing gear."....not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted." William Bruce Cameron, Informal Sociology: A Casual Introduction to Sociological Thinking (1963) -
I hooked the sub up to the left channel of my pre using a y-cable and while it seems to work ok, I can't help but think it would be even better hooked up to a dedicated sub-out. Plus, now that I am looking, the upgrade bug has hit once again.
Well, after looking around I decided on a Marantz 7008.
