    2 outputs? i guess thats what you mean

    most subs have a left and right low level input. so ones for the left ones for the right.

    or you can run the left into a sub and put it to the left of the room, and use another sub and run the right output into it and place it to the right of the room, so you get really precise bass. if a car blows up to the right, the sub on the right will take it etc.....

    It is there so you can use the sub's crossover before sending the signal to the main speakers. You send speaker level signal, or line level, to the sub befoore it goes to the main speakers, the output signal then drives the main speakers so only the frequencies above what you set on the sub goes to the main speakers.

    I think he's talking about two subwoofer outputs on the receiver itself, not on the subwoofer. Having two subwoofer outputs would allow for a two subwoofer setup and for the receiver to control them separately.
