I purchased an Onkyo TX-SR504(B) AV Receiver and a Polkaudio RM6750 audio system from Circuit City. Hooking up the system and ran into a snag; The reciever has a pre out for the sub woofer which is a single connection and the subwoofer has a line in which is a double connection. What kind of cable do I need for this hook up?

Thanks for any help,
Pat:confused:

    Read the directions. It will tell you which jack you need for mono ie. left or right.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben

    Use a Y connector to feed both inputs on the sub so it will give you a 3 db boost.
