Sub woofer cable help please...

Sub cable

I recently purchased a single sub woofer cable, but I have two outputs out of my preamplifier. I am ok going into my subs single input but coming out of the preamp is an issue. I have two female RCA outs of my pre amp and I need a y adapter with two male and one female. Do you know where I might find one or any suggestions? As it stands now I can plug it in but only to the left or right output from preamplifier. And then into the one input on the sub. Thank you...

Thanks Bif... I feel like you wrote a term paper :)
I have sent an email to Steve McCormack and Kris at smc audio and will see what they say, better safe than sorry. At first I thought it was a stupid question, I am glad I asked now!
thanks again! I really appreciate the help.

I just received this advice from Kris T SMC Audio.

"What you need is a summing cable that takes the two outputs and combines them into a single cable. (2 x RCA male to 1 x RCA female.  A summing cable uses resistors to isolate the two outputs.  A regular y connector should not be used."
Does anyone know where I can buy one?
Thanks
