First av all, let us point out one really important fact that just have to be considered when creating a speaker/sub-woofer system. In almost all countries in the world, the power output sockets in the wall either put out 50 or 60 Hz power. And, in most sub-woofer/satellite speaker system the frequency cross-over between sub and speaker is close to these power frequencies.
The result, if not addressed, will undoubtedly be crosstalk between power lines, speaker cables and signal to sub-woofer, which will make any attempt to create that seemless interaction between speakers and sub-woofer impossible.
Now, with this said, the interconnect cable choice for the sub-woofer is critical. But that is not all, the system should not be subject to any magnetic fields caused by above currents that may induce 50, 60 Hz or other low frequency high current signal into sub-woofer interconnect even if very well shielded. So take proper actions to minimize cross-talk by means of routing the cables far as possible from each other and for the really consious hifi enthusiast, choose Supra shielded mains cables that radiate a minimum of power system noise nor pick the noise up.
For good noise immune sub-woofer interconnects, refer to the models below, and for minimizing the magnetic alternating fields, refer to Supra LoRad program of power products.

For single channel connection between e.g. a receiver and an active sub-woofer (often called LFE channel = Low Frequency Effects). Supra Sublinks low capacitance and high noise interference immunity make longer cable routing possible, which most often is the case for sub-woofer connections. Further the low capacitance allow bass pulse build-up without flattening or slow down, the really desirable property of an excellent hifi sub-woofer sound.
For single channel connection between e.g. a receiver and an active sub-woofer (often called LFE channel = Low Frequency Effects) with balanced input and XLR chassis contact. Supra Sublinks low capacitance and high noise interference immunity make longer cable routing possible, which most often is the case for sub-woofer connections. Further the low capacitance allow bass pulse build-up without flattening or slow down, the really desirable property of an excellent hifi sub-woofer sound.
This cable may also be used to connect active speakers such as studio monitors with balanced input to a single-end source. The properties of the Supra SubLink is of a high standard also for full range purpose.
For single channel connection between e.g. a pre-amplifier or a studio mixer and an active sub-woofer (often called LFE channel = Low Frequency Effects) with balanced in- and outputs including our finest XLR contacts. Supra Sublinks low capacitance and high noise interference immunity, make longer cable routing possible, which most often is the case for sub-woofer connections, especially in professional use. Further the low capacitance allow bass pulse build-up without flattening or slowing down, the really desirable property of an excellent hifi sub-woofer sound. Balanced interface is more common in pro-sound and studio, but occasionally also more sophisticated home hifi offers this clearly more advantageous interconnection for noise suppression and low signal degradation.

Supra Y-Link allows for interconnection between a receiver with a single LFE channel output and an active sub-woofer without specific LFE input but instead two channel (stereo) inputs, or any other devices that is desired to feed with one single channel. Sometimes the output sound level from the sub-woofer becomes too low when feeding only one of the inputs, why we have developed Y-Link cable that branches from one to two single-ended RCA connectors, making it possible to feed both channels with the same mono signal.
The Y-Link does not provide stereo sound, it splits only the mono LFE (single) channel to double mono inputs.
Using the Y-Link in any way to sum stereo (2) channels to mono is potentially dangerous to your pre-amplifier/receiver/ampifier and we strongly advice not to use the Y-Link this way. Supra Cables do not cover any damages.
Some devices input impedance are too low to be suitable to share the same single output signal. The result will in the best situation only deteriorate the sound especially when playing louder. There is a risc, however, that the output amplifier stage from the mono source to be splitted, may not be able to drive the resulting lower impedance and may in worst case over-heat and break. Read carefully the devices manuals or ask the manufacturer to determine whether it is possible to split the mono output signal into two input stages.
