Best way to wire up a sub

Hi,

I have a new pre-amp with only XLR connectors and want to use my older Velodyne sub which has RCA input's only.
My question is can I just use an XLR>2 RCA's cable (using a Y Connector)?

My older pre-amp just had an RCA so I used a Y connector and then into the sub with no issues so I assume the XLR connector would work the same way etc.

Thanks

I actually connected it up and it lasted about 3hrs. Now the sub has decided to die. It has served me well over the years...thank you Velodyne.
Anyway going to buy a DD+ 12 or 15 this week to rock my new media room that will be built very shortly.

Thanks for the replies.
