Subwoofer cable question


I want to run a Rel sub from my integrated amps "pre out" and the sub has only 1 "low level" and  the "lfe" input. Do I need an adapter from stereo to mono or do the low level and lfe inputs on the sub act together as left and right input?

I don't have the sub yet so I didn't know about the included high level cable. So this cable connects to speaker taps on the amp and the other end to sub? Then normal speaker cables go from high level out on sub to main speakers?

Hide45 I can't afford stereo subs at this point. Maybe in the future if "the boss" agrees. 

Thanks guys for all the info. I can't afford 2 subs at this time. I was really just trying to find out how rel subs are connected. I understand that now and will try the default setup and see how it goes. If I reach a point where I can afford a second sub I will revisit this issue but for now there is no point. Opinions on REL vs SVS?

Thanks for all the suggestions. I think I will look for an affordable rel and use the speakon cable as it saves me the cost of buying a relatively long ic cable and seams simple and straightforward.
