I use the line with a Y adapter for the DD .1 + for the LF of the rears.
+ I use the second pair of speaker outputs of my power to feed the sub to aid my mains. But maybe I'll remove the speaker cables when I'll get the SF mains.

This is my Audio gear:

Power amp: Audiolab (England) 8000P- connected to the main speakers
Receiver: Yamaha RXV-2095 (The main pre out is connected to the power amp.
+ The R/SR - pre out is connected to the main pre in, in order to get 2 pairs of surr.)
CD: Rotel RCD971 HDCD
DVD: Pioneer DV515

Speakers:

Main: 2 Acoustic-Energy A100 (on stands and cones)
Center: 1 Sonus Faber Solo (on cones)
Surr: 2 Mirage OM-R2 omnipolars (hanging on side walls)
2 Wharfedale Delta 30 (on cones at the back)
Sub: 1 Yamaha YST-SM500 (on cones)

Cables:

RF/s-video/video/coax/cabels: Monster Silver
Interconnects: Cabeltalk Monitor 2

Digital: Monster Lightspeed 100
Speaker cable: Cabeltalk4 (all bi-wired)
Center speaker cable: Cabeltalk Concert 2.1 (bi-wire)
Sub-cable: Monster THX
Sur-cable: Monster

Misc:

Acoustic devices: 4 of Michael Green's Corner Tunes

I ordered for the main speakers Sonus Faber Concerto , I'll get them next month + I'll add in the future a new sub (REL) for the fronts and put the old sub to the rear with speaker cables.
