[QUOTE="Waterhond, post: 345021, member: 1200"] A lot of subs have a speaker level input in addition to the low level inputs. You simply connect the amp's speaker out using normal speaker cable to the sub's high level input and then the sub's speaker outputs to your speakers. Then you just adjust the phase, volume and crossover frequency on the sub to suit your speakers. Strike a balance and don't overdo the bass - occasionally, actually lots of time swith older recordings, you'll find that there just isn't a lot of really low bass.. just live with it! Once you've dialled it in, the sub's volume level follows your amp's level and you should not need to adjust it again except for some fine tuning!
