If I were to use parts express plate amps for a DIY subwoofer, how would I connect it to the LFE out on my reciever? The 120W amp that I want has only stereo lowlevel inputs. Would I just use a splitter?

That's assuming of course your LFE out on the receiver is low level.
While you can use it w/o the splitter, you may get better volume w/splitter... depending on the circuitry of the amp. Either way, it's a small cost for the piece of mind as long as you don't go spending mega bucks on some fancy, shmancy splitter. :)
