Can I use a single RCA cable to connect the receiver output to either left or right inputs, or do I need to utilize both inputs by purchasing an RCA Y-Adapter which has 2 males to plug into both L & R inputs? null

You can use a single rca plugged cable. I did the same until I purchased the y cable. However, sound throughput seems better with y cable than with single.

Either way will work . I use a single cable .

Run a single, high quality cable to the LFE input on the subwoofer - It a LFE port does not exist you can run a single cable to either the Right or Left port OR you can acquire a high quality Y-Cable and connect the "Y" cable to the Right and Left ports - Some say that using the Y Cable pushes a little more power and also helps mitigate any slight cut out at lower volumes - I run a dual Polk Audio PSW108 configuration this way and love it...

I would recommend:

Polk Audio - PSW108 10" Powered Subwoofer, 100W Peak Power, Explosive Performance for Movies & Music - Black
