    Default best way to wire DUAL PSW505's

    I currently have a single PSW505 hooked up to my onkyo receiver. i have both L/R channels going to the sub via speaker wire, then from the sub, speaker wire going to my L/R front speakers. I bought another PSW505 and am wondering how to connect it without having to use RCA cables and "Y" splitters, i want it done with speaker wire. PLEASE HELP!!! thank you

    Simple. Left channel speaker wire going to one sub then to receiver. Rinse and repeat for the right channel.

    Right and left sub inputs are combined into mono internally, so there is no "empty" channel.
