Can you split subwoofer pre out?
No problems and no worries about damage. All you’re transmitting through that “subwoofer cable” and the Y-splitter is a low voltage signal. You’re not sending any sort of amplifier power – that’s built into the sub itself. So there’s no problem with splitting the signal to feed two or more subs.
