I also split my subs with a Y adapter but from my reciever. But never have at the back of the sub. After reading many post and reports it seams you gain about 3 Dbls at Sub using the Y adapter in the subs lfe & right input. Ands lots of folks say it is a waist of time. But to go off topic I run all my speakers Bi-Wired and the same thing some folks think this is a waist of time also and some swear by it.

The y adapter doesn't gain you 3 dbs per say, it essentially makes the volume on the sub more sensitive. The sub will be louder at the same given level but it will still run out of steam at the same approximate db level. People use the y adapter often to make their subs wake up more quickly more than anything from what I've read. Some subs have gain levels that aren't very sensitive.
