How to add a subwoofer to a 2 channel stereo


Hi, I run into a strange issue here. I have purchased an used Mcintosh HT2 subwoofer. It is a great passive sub. However, If I run this sub together with my tower from same amplifier, this sub sounds great, but not that powerful. However, if I run as bi-amp, and power this sub with a dedicated sub amp, I can hear and feel all the punch, but the sound is not that solid. Did I do anything wrong? Help!

this is why a good powered sub or 2 makes life (and the music) better and easier
