I think most of us who use two subs do so for smoother LF, and doubt the stereo effect of such LF. Most of us cross to the sub just above the effective LF extension of the mains or use the THX standard 80 Hz.

L&R subs but only only a mono sub output; options?
This may be difficult to explain correctly but I may be in a situation where I have two subs and two monitors functioning as L&R main speakers. The subs will have plate amps with RCA inputs but I can only output a split mono sub signal from my receiver. I don't want to go this route since I will loose the stero effect for anything below the crossover point which may be higher than usual due to the overall design.
The only other full range signal that I have available would be the preout for Zone 2. In theory i could run the zone 2 preout to the sub to deliver the signal and use the crossover on the plate amp. The trouble here is that zone 2 only plays analog inputs which means connecting up analog cables from my BD player and cable box...not a problem in itself but will there be timing issues in the output signal due to the different processing and delivery of the inputs?
Hope this makes sense and looking forward to feedback and suggestions.
Thx.
