Oops - the Emotiva has just line level inputs. Which is the better way, and that's how I have the sub on my main system hooked in. But for this second system with the B&W's, the integrated stereo amp has no extra output or subwoofer/LFE output - so I need to hook up a subwoofer that has speaker level inputs. Recommendations there? Thanks.
The Emotiva Ultra Sub 12 at $429 delivered is hard to beat for accuracy and output for that price.
Jackfish, you always have good suggestions. I looked it up and it looks great -thank you.

For $30 you can get this speaker level to line level converter:

Otherwise this would be highly recommended:
Elemental Designs A5s-300, $550 but worth the extra $50.
That sub looks good - thanks!
