Newbie question.. Preamp and Sub

I didn't see any specifications for a sub output on any of the preamps i've checked ..
..

how do we usually connect a powered subwoofer with a normal preamp ? ( the one i checked are bryston and classe stereo preamps.. )
i thought they would have additional RCA or balanced outputs for subwoofers..

are stereo preamps designed to be used with 2 speakers + sub?

i know i will need a subwoofer for sure as my Mirage OM-10 are really lacking in deep bass.. ( 5.5" driver )

thank you!

thank you for the inputs guys :p

i just learned that the preamp i am looking for now the most
( bryston BP-25 or BP-20) has 2 sets of RCA outputs in the back...

the sub i will get are probably gonna be matching OM Mirage BPS-150 or BPS-400 wich have a crossover adjustment on them.. my speakers the OM-10 also have crossovers but they can't be adjusted ..

so could i use one of the RCA out of the preamp to the amp and one to the sub ?
would that be also a good way to do it ?

if not, i think that i can use the way you described..the line level thing, with the BPS speakers ..

thank you :)
