I’m experimenting with setting up two subwoofers in stereo. I’ve got some different connection options on the way and have a few questions:
If I have source with single RCA outputs for (L) and (R), can I connect one RCA (L) channel via single cable to an active subwoofer’s (L) RCA input only connection, and then the same to another active subwoofer with the (R) channel input only connection?
What affect does it have on the active subwoofers with only one of the RCA inputs connected? Decrease in signal?
Likewise, is there any affect on the source by connecting this way?
Another option I was looking at was just getting a box like this:

and connecting (L) (L) to one sub and (R) (R) to the other but I’m not sure if a device like this is necessary if I can connect them each with a single cable as described above.
