Probably being silly... How do I connect this sub to my amp?

[rob0r]

Hello all. I've recently put together a man cave with a new projector, amp (Yamaha 677) and 5.1 speaker package (Tannoy HTS 101). I bought 50mm of 322 strand 2.5mm speaker wire and wired all the speakers to the amp but I don't know what to do with the sub! It looks like the Yamaha 677 has an RCA sub output (2 I think), whereas the sub looks like it has the bare wire screw terminals?? I've had a look and I can't see a wire that will do the job, but I really have no idea what I need.

Amp outputs


Sub inputs




And a few bonus images of my new cave... Optoma 141, 101" fixed projection screen and loads of wires on the floor. We had the fireplace put in (previously bricked up) which is now painted in.

Sub woofer Pre out to Subwoofer line in with a Sub cable.

You can also do it with Speaker cable, but it's easier to do it at Line level.

You should have had a cable with the speaker package I have exact same system / setup have to say very pleased with it, still haven't worked out all features / settings yet

Use the pre-out. That's what I do on my Cambridge amp and Gale sub.

Thanks for the advice, I was expecting to use the screw terminals like the other speakers which confused me! So I've just bought a "sub cable" which will go from the preout to the line input. Awesome, thanks for the quick responses.
