Is it possible to hook up a subwoofer to a preamp that only has one set of outputs (for the amp, I presume)?
HT/2-channel Rig: Sony 50” LCD TV; Toshiba HD-A2 DVD player; Emotiva LMC-1 pre/pro; Rogue Audio M-120 monoblocks (modded); Placette RVC; Emotiva LPA-1 amp; Bada HD-22 tube CDP (modded); VMPS Tower II SE (fronts); DIY Clearwave Dynamic 4CC (center); Wharfedale Opus Tri-Surrounds (rear); and VMPS 215 sub

    The X-30 sub control from Paradigm would work for you. Using L / R input from the pre outputs / take the main outputs L/R from one of the following 50hz / 80hz / 120hz, the sub has it's own output on the sub control.

    I could post a picture if you need to show you.
