Would like to add a sub to a two channel system


I'm hoping someone can give me advice on what would be a cost-effective way to add a subwoofer to my stereo setup which currently employs two bookshelf speakers. I'm running a B&K ST140 for power, an Adcom GFP preamp, a Music Hall MMf-5 TT, and Paradigm Atoms for speakers. I have a small sub I'd like to add. It is amplified but can also be powered by the main stereo amp. I would like to get advice on cable options or (less desirable) to buy some kind of crossover or ???
I humbly await for assistance.

My opinion is to skip the external crossovers, etc., for now and just use the sub's built in crossover set around 50 Hz, but do try to find a second sub identical to the one you have. I have found it much easier to integrate two subs rather than one for various reasons.
