I have a question about how to lash up a pair of subs to your preamp. As you all know, when you buy a sub it has inputs for both the right and left channels and the woofer has dual voice coils in order to handle both inputs. If you are running a siingle sub, you just run a pair or ICs from your preamp out jacks to your sub and plug them in.
My second sub is arriving today and now there are options. I can run an IC over to each sub and choose either the Right or Left input to jack into or, I can run the IC over to each sub and plug the IC into a Y-splitter so that I can plug into both the left and right inputs so I'm using both voice coils.
My question is what are people doing and is there consensus for the best way to hook up two subs? My gut tells me to use the Y-splitter.
