Hooking up active monitors to PSW110

Hey folks,
I'm ordering a Polk PSW110 subwoofer to go with my Active Monitors, which are a pair of M-Audio Studiophile AV30's. The speakers are very basic and are rated 15W per speaker with the low freq response at 90Hz. So i basically lose a lot of deep bass. Hence the decision to go for the PSW110.
So my question is, i want to connect my pc soundcard to this setup. How do i set it up and what will i need?
Typically if i'm right, is this how:
Soundcard 3.5mm jack > subwoofer line in >speaker wire out >active monitor rca in.
Will this work? Will it overload my soundcard?
Would i need an audio interface?
And how to do i connect them?
Thanks!!

Hello,
The speaker level output, on the sub-woofer, will not be active unless you make a speaker level input connection to the unit. In other words, the only way to get a signal coming from the right and left speaker outputs is to have a right and left speaker level input coming into it.
