IMHO, the speaker-level inputs might be the better choice. You are less likely to have problems with signal degradation with the high-level output than with a line-level output over a 50 ft. run, especially as you would need to pass the signal back to the amp from each sub. Of course, as Philip mentioned, you must make sure that the speaker-level output from each subwoofer to the sides (which I believe you will be using) is high-passed, to avoid damaging your surrounds. If you can't do this with the speaker-level inputs/outputs, you'll need to either use an external cross-over or use the line-level option, in which case some form of shielded cable might be necessary - there are almost certainly postings on this in the archive.

Hope this is of some use.

Simon
