: USE A Y-cable to utilize both inputs of your sub. If you dont use both, you may loose about 6 dB of signal and thus will not be able to achieve max power of sub.

That is not necessarily correct for all subs. For example M&K explicitly state in their manual that mono inputs should be made to the left input only. That's why I suggested the o/p refer to his manual. You should be very careful when making such broad generalisations.
