I use a sub in line with my main speakers
The signal goes from my pre out to the sub (Bag End Infra 18) which has a crossover to the mains, so for both stereo & HT I have my sub.

Perviously with other subs I did try to use the receiver's crossover for music, but going through it;s circuitry really killedthe sound quality.

If possible I would recommend you get a good quality external crossover like the Paradigm X-30 (which, coincidentally, I have a brand new extra one I no longer need....)
Take pre amp feed to crossover, then it provides the leads for your sub & mains.
This allows you to high pass your mains, saving your amplifier the load, which should open up your mids & increase clarity.

If you want extra LFE bass too, just run the LFE out from your receiver to the other sub input.
