What’s the best rca “Y” adaptor?


I have a ARC SP-9 MKll Preamp with only one set of outputs and I’m thinking about adding a sub woofer or two.  I can’t go off of speaker cables because I have Acoustat  Model X’s and the have the Servo amps with three wires to the speaker, so I must pull off of the preamp.

I looked in the older posts and the newest one was from 2004, so what’s new in the “Y” Adaptor world?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Al,

Thanks for the info.  I did ask ARC and their response was “It should work” so that’s why I’m asking.  I bought an ARC, EC-2 Years ago and tried several amps and many speakers, Including several I built myself, but was never satisfied with the sound.  I gave up trying for a while, but with all this time I suddenly have, my thoughts have returned to subwoofer.

BTW, I did see the AQ adapters and will probably buy those next.

Thanks.

roberjerman,

 I doubt I’ll ever buy a pair of y adapters for $500! But the pairs I have ain’t cutting it. I went to Monoprice and only saw two kinds.  The first was female to male, that is not what I need and the second was .63 cents and I already have something similar.  Am I missing something else?
Thanks.

Hi Al,

 The SP9 would go into the EC-2 crossover and I just realized I don’t know the output impedance of it. I’ll have to check that tomorrow.

Thanks for your wisdom.
