How do I connect my Subwoofer to a two channel setup?


I’m converting my home theater into just a 2 channel audio setup.

For now I’m just going to play digital files from my computer. Computer | DAC | Preamp | Amp | Speakers.


What I currently have:


Polk LsiM703’s

SB SV-2000

Parasound HCA 1500A

I plan to add a Schiit Sega+ preamp and Modi 3 DAC


Question how should I connect my SVS SB2000 subwoofer since I’m taking the A/V receiver out?


The sub has a L&R Input and L&R line level out.

The Parasound has L&R input, L&R loop outputs, and of course L&R speaker outputs.

The preamp will have 5 pair of inputs, and 2 pair of outputs.

Yes...I’m a n00b.

Thanks!

If the preamp has two pairs of outputs there would be no reason to use a Y-adapter!
Wait, what? Two sets of pre-out? Went through all that only to learn there's two sets of pre-out? ??

So did we eventually figure out the answer is .... use em?!?!
We did.  As I stated I was basically new to this world.  I only had a home theater setup before this.  I am in the process of buying a pre/dac and creating my first (descent) sounding two channel setup.

Even though I read the instructions of the subwoofer I was a little confused with the diagram showing a y splitter.

....and why I ended up here asking people with more knowledge.
