Connection from receiver to eD A2-300

[azereus]

Hi,

I'm toying with the idea of ordering an eD A2 300 to replace my current Polk subwoofer.

How does the eD hook up to the receiver? Currently I only have to use 1 RCA cable from the receiver to the LFE port on the sub. I looked at pics of the eD and it seems a little different.

Can anyone provide me with a little clarification?

Thanks

Either. Since it's a mono signal you can choose either (check documentation to see if one is suggested- on some it's the left input) or you can use a y-splitter and you'll get an approximate +3db gain. Some people have reported better response with the auto setting with a Y-splitter.

Yes. I would suggest a Y. However, it is not needed.

Is there a more specific name for the Y adapter? I'm trying to find one on monoprice...

I got mine from a very good website, cablesimple, here is the link and the type of Y-splitter you will need for your sub......prices are very comparable to monoprice....

I looked on their site for a while and finally chatted with someone there and they only sell the molded solid ones.
