Subwoofer Settings

God Almighty...googling a speaker question you need to be a freaking mathematician.

I could use some help. Just to get me started, from a 2 channel amp should I connect to the sub using low pass or high pass RCA connection? Should I be using 1 or 2 cables?

As a starting point where should the crossover be?

Brian,
You are the one who used the terms.  If you have a sub, I suggest you start with the manual there.

Best,
E

Hi Brian,
So, low-pass means, it passes low frequencies.  High-pass passes high frequencies.

You want a lowpass to the subs, high pass to the main. 
80 Hz is the THX standard and a useful starting point.
