You have 2 options, and rigging an RCA cord to the subwoofer inputs is NOT one of them. 1) Buy active subwoofer 2) Get something to serve as a subwoofer amp. You can use an old stereo receiver.

Hook it to an ohm meter to confirm that it has infinite DC resistance. If so, it is safe to use.

Radio Shack (of all places) makes a small battery powered phono preamp that is dead quiet and highly regarded by some hardcore audiophiles, and its cheap. Even if your receiver does have a phono input, you might want to give this a try...

Its only in the chain for the sub. It works in the digital domain, and microprocessors are cheap electronics. To know if it would help you, you need to plot pure sine wave SPL against frequency from about 20 to 100. If thats nice and...

Sorry, you cannot do this. No line level crossover, no biamp.

The answer is obvious and has already been mentioned twice- a BFD. This upgrade will cost less than some of you cables and have a huge impact.
