REL with Integrated Amp connection Question

This is a very noobish question but then again I'm a noob with subwoofers integrated with 2 channel systems =)

Assuming I have a Krell integrated and a Yamaha HT receiver. I have two speakers, I'd like to integrate a REL subwoofer. Currently I have the Krell as my dedicated two channel amplifier connected to a DAC and transport; however I also use the Krell to power the two front speakers and use the Yamaha AVR as a processor and video switcher via Krell's HT by-pass function. Confused yet? Now I ask you how in the world can I connect a REL sub like the Q-108 into the mix? I'd REALLY hope it can be done somehow through the Krell's pre-out line level outputs and not through the speakers terminals where I would then have to run speaker wire (thick Harmonic Technology) to the Subwoofer.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Chazzbo:

Lets assume for a second I don't incorporate the sub for home theatre, how would the Speakers/REL and Krell be connected? Maybe I'm oldschool but I always thought the speakers would be connected to the subwoofer (via speaker binding posts) then connect from the subwooofer to the amp (via speaker binding posts).

Oh, so the REL connects to my existing speaker terminals that are already connected from my amplifier to speaker. So in a sense I'd have to spades connected to each terminal. I think I've got it now.
