... take care of all your worries for you. If you designate your mains, or any other of your speakers as small, then bass energy is diverted to the sub. Usually the sub only receives frequencies below 80 hz and you can control the volume to balance out with the right sound for your room and your personal taste.All the sub usually does is to accept frequencies below 80 hz from your Myryad and amplify them for you, the degree of amplification being set by you. A Radio Shack level meter or similar is usually an important tool to get those levels correct. The ear is a poor judge, particularly at the lower frequencies.
I'm not sure I understand your alternatives if you have outputs from your Myryad amp connected correctly. Mains should be left alone and your sub connected to the sub output of the amp.
Does this answer your question?
