Amp to powered subwoofer question

Hello
I'm using these Dared VP-20 quazi mono block amp I have just acquired.
I'm using them as integrateds. I'm running them to bookshelfs and a sub.
These amps don't have a rca line out to hook up to the sub that way, so I'm taking wires and running the sub fron the ONE of the mono amps speaker leads.

Heres the thing I'm concerned about,my sub like to have two input to get a full sound out of it, so I jump the other side of the terminals on the sub, kind of like you would with a speaker you can bi-amp.

Is this causing a problem for my mono block amp?

It seems to work fine...

Thanks for the comment.
My room is not set up to run the wires that way.

I prefer to run one line to the sub,it goes from one of the mono blocks, into the floor, through the basement, up through the floor to the sub.
So,one line is my preference.

I just don't want to strain the amp and I'm wondering if I bridge the conection, on the inputs on the sub, if that's cool or not.

Plus, I want to run my Bookself speakers full range,with their own speaker lines coming off the amps.

Hummm....
