How to integrate Marantz 2240 with subwoofer

Hello and Merry Christmas!
I have a Marantz 2240 receiver and Paradigm sub. The sub has stereo rca and balanced inputs. No speaker level inputs. Can you recommend a crossover to go between the receiver and sub?

Right now I have an RCA Y splitter coming off the R/L receiver pre outputs with one output going to receiver amp and the other going to the sub. I figure there’s a better way to do the connection.

Thanks

Joe

Helps with a model number of the sub and a link to the OM for said unit.

If you have RCA inputs to the sub and RCA outputs from the sub, go 2240 preamp output to Sub input and from Sub output to 2240 Main amp input.

if you don't have RCA outputs from the sub, then you have it the way it should be done. This runs the main speakers full range, the method above would generally cut the lows out of the main speakers depending on the sub.
