Has anyone tried bridging Two Stereo Rca Cables into one male conector using a y adapter into their SUB-WOOFER amp L/R input?

I am going to test if I yeild more Volatage into my amp with the left and right channels bridged into one RCA...this should give me the ability to BOOST my EQ's Left and Right frequencies for more, current into the sub's inputs.

yup, simple rules. a parallel cirquit has the same voltage on every line, just less current. and a series cirquit has differant voltage at every resistor, but the current stays the same.

But there still would be the benefit of merging the two signals to one. (I have some music that has extreme L/R separation that leaves my sub silent when the music is in the right channel) a Y would eliminate that.
