I can't think of any two channel pre amps with a sub out, on AV amps, yes. However many sub woofers have the ability to connect to take an 'high level' input from your speakers so its not such a problem if you have an amp with only one set of out puts. Re the Topping pre 90, its ridiculously...

Can someone check me on this please, for the input I’m going to get the recommended mic, minidsp UMIK-1, probably from Amazon but I’m not sure about how best to get the test tones to my system, I am thinking I would use the balanced outputs from my Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 to the stereo pre amp ...
