I did the same setup, Yamaha 8' and sub 10 using a Y splitter and I somehow felt that my sub-10 performance was diminshed and the sound was kind of flat. Can you give more information on your crossover settings. Also were the subwoofers next to each other or across the room? I have a Yamaha RV1105 receiver. Thanks

I have a Yamaha RV1105 receiver and its documentation states that the cutoff frequency of this subwoofer output terminal is 90hz. My understanding of this statement is that the receiver will put out any audio frequency below 90hz to this terminal. So should I just set the crossover frequency on my subwoofer be to 90hz? This way audio frequencies below 90hz will be handled by my subwoofer. Are there any other crossover frequencies adjustments that I need to do? Thanks

I purchased a Y cable (Monster from Circuit City for $17.99) for splitting my receiver LFE output and then connected each output of the Y cable to each of my subwoofers. I see both of my subwoofers working fine. But somehow I get the feeling that my Klipsch is not performing as well as it was when I had connected it directly to the receiver. So wondering if splitting the LFE output is reducing the signal strength going into the Klipsch and hence making the Klipsch to underperform. But I still have not played too much with the phase setting on the subwoofer. So far I do not see a big noticable difference after connecting both subwoofers. I am still playing with it and will post my results in couple of days.

I recently purchased a Klipsch sub-10 subwoofer and I already have a Yamaha 8 inch powered subwoofer. I am planning on connecting these two subwoofers to my Yamaha receiver by splitting the LFE subwoofer output and feeding it to these two subwoofers. I have two questions. Is is okay to operate these two subwoofers , with different operating specifications, simultaneously? Will it distort the sound quality? If I split my receiver's LFE output and feed it to my subwoofers, will it make both subwoofers to underperform? Is there any better way to do this? Thanks
