[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 2589610, member: 540940"] You paid $33 for (a) sub cable(s)??! I would probably just hook your mono cable up to one of the two sub pre-outs at the HU - not using the y cable there. The reason being - If the signal coming from the HU isn't exactly the same on each of the 2 outputs you could theoretically cause damage to the HU. The y cables would create a short between the 2 outputs. Not a good scenario IMO. If it IS mono you don't need to run them both anyway. If you want to use the y cable at the amp input that's fine.
