Wireless subwoofer question???

Ok, probably a dumb question, but I just don't get it??
I have a wireless sub that I use for HT only, and it
has a wireless transmitter & 2 inputs for RCA's.

The transmitter has only a single input I assume is for
(and can only be run by) a single "sub out" found on most
receivers & HT processors. I have a pre amp (Peachtree Nova
pre)with a left & right pre out. Now, if I run a set of rca's
L&R to a " Y splitter" and plug it into the transmitter am I not feeding the L&R signal to it, then it sends to the sub??

Or is it a mono signal no matter??? I am running it now with
a pair of RCA's, but bought it solely to be able to run it
wireless and put it anywhere. Out of luck on that??

Any help much appreciated.

you will need 2 "Y" splitters, single male to 2 female.
Connect each male end to the Pre-out (L/R), you now have 2 Left and 2 Right, variable outputs from the Pre-Amp.
You have effectivly split the output voltage, but you can compensate with the volume control if needed.
Once you have the subwoofer at an adeqate level, the only adjustment on the sub needed, may be to switch between Music and H/T modes on the subwoofer.
