No Sub-Mojo

I have an Accuphase E-202 integrated amp that I'd like to use with a subwoofer since it has preamp/main out outputs. I tried to connect to a sub a few months ago, but was not able to get a signal to activate the sub. Anyone out there who has an E-202 and is using it with a sub? This is confusing to me, because I also have a Pioneer Spec-1 preamp that I'm using the preamp outputs to drive a sub, and that works beautifully.

Should work from the pre out to active sub/s

"We don't need no stinkeen instructions!". The thing that's odd is the "normal - separate" switch under the pre-out/main-in jacks. Maybe "normal" deactivates the pre-out signal. I'll bet the manual says to set the switch to separate to activate the jacks. Please verify this in the manual and give it a try.

No. "Steenking" is east-coast, "Stinkeen" is west-cost. I lived in ’Vegas for 13 years so I know.
