B&W ASW 675 Subwoofer with Creek Evolution 100A?

That's the question. I've been using the ASW 675 for years. The Creek is on the way to me via FedEx, and it has a preamp out, for use with a subwoofer. But the ASW 675 manual says it's "not suitable for use with 2-channel integrated pre/power amplifiers," and doesn't show an appropriate connection schematic.

Your thoughts, please?

Al & dweller: thanks for your responses. I'm happy to know that using the ASW 675 isn't completely out of the question but will be a matter of how well it will work with my system without the high pass filter function. I'm expecting the new Creek tomorrow and I'll report back on how things go.

Best,

Rick

Al & dweller: some two weeks later, using your advice for set-up and a lot of tweaking, I think the ASW 675 sounds better than it ever did in the previous system. FYI, I'm using it with a pair of B&W CDM 1 SE's, with the low pass frequency set at about 60Hz and at about 1/3 volume. The CDM 1 SE's low frequency response is 58Hz. I may continue to tweak as I listen through more music, but, so far, so good. Thanks for your help.
