SUB Hookup question - Blu-ray Forum

Quick question regarding my sub.
Recently bought a Polk rm6750 5.1 speaker set to go with my yamaha v663.
There are Rt and Lt inputs on the sub and single outputs on the receiver.

Should I 'convert' the sound from mono-stereo via a phono jack and then plug in Rt and Lt inputs, simply get a Y-shaped RCA cable with 3 male ends, or just plug a single double-ended RCA cable into either the Rt or Lt inputs, respectively?

Neither, just run the wire from your reciever straight into the left or right audio connection on the subs amp. Most people do the left, but it should not make a difference. If you don't like that idea, you can get a Y-adapter as well. Both are valid ways to use your subwoofer.
