Need Advice Connecting Powered Subs to MX-2000/CX-2000 System

Have a CX-2000 Control amp connected to an MX-2000 power amp which I have two Definitive Technology SP-2000 towers connected to. The powers have a powered sub with a single input for the Sub.

How do I connect both subs to the system properly to get just the low levels out of the subs?

Welcome to AK...please show us some pictures of your lovely CX/MX pair!

Assuming you have a dual pre out on your CX-2000, it appears as though you could have single separate rca's going from the L/R of pre-out 2 to each LFE input. And according to pictures the CX-2000 has a dual pre-out (1 & 2). Depending
on how the internal crossover/configuration is set up in the speakers, I would assume that the woofers would only be capable of delivering the information you want. Have you tried hooking them up? I'm sure someone will chime in to correct me if I'm wrong.
 
Your cx to mx uses 1 set of pre-out's...If I'm reading this right you have 2 Servo powered sub,s ?
If the sub's have low level in-puts get 2...3 way splitter cables pluging one to left the other to right of the second set of cx pre-out's
follow proper power flow -to-, +to+ to your sub's and your done.
 
The internet doesn't seem to recognise "Definitive Technology SP-2000" but assuming they have line level subwoofer inputs, then you don't need any splitters. The CX-2000 has two sets of preamplifier outputs, so assuming the MX-2000 is plugged into Preamp Output 1, then plug the right sub into Preamp Output 2-R and the left sub into Preamp Output 2-L.
