Have an integrated amp with only 1 subwoofer out...

Hi.

I am very new to this, so I apologize for my basic question.  I have an integrated amp that only has one output RCA...which is a subwoofer out.  I have a powered subwoofer already, but I wanted to hook up a graphic equalizer to the amp as well.

Is there a way to do this easily?

Thank you!

Why not take an RCA splitter cable with one connection to the IA and two out. One to sub; the other to the EQ?

Not sure if this will diminish the out signal, but I once used this to power two subs from a single IA out port and it seemed to work just fine.

I tried to splitter, with mixed results. Does your sub have a speaker connection/binders?

How would that work with the splitter?  I have only one sub out on the integrated amplifier. What would the routing wiring be?

And the sub has the following on the back:  

Left and Right Line In / Sub in

2 speaker level in's.  (2 left and 2 right)

use the speaker level inputs from your amp's speaker out, it worked for me nicely. The split is a Y giving you two  outs from your pre-out on your amp. If you don't have a pre-out, how would you connect the EQ?
