Default An active subwoofer can be connected to the Phono Stage RCA?

I am curious if active subwoofer can be connected to the Phono Stage RCA?
I have Clearaudio Balance Plus phono and I am currently using XLR's output to direct connection two mono amps, but the same time you can use RCA output connection as well. So, If I connect Subwoofer Left or Right channel while I am using XLR's output to my amps, will I harm or damage my phono stage?

You shouldn't have any problems with that. I've
Never experienced a source get damaged by an output cable, only once when I dropped my unsecured amp by an inch, that blew my iPad's audio section completely when I was testing them. I must mention that my unsecured amp was a complete DIY, which I enjoyed the sound for about half and hour before that happened.

So, i doubt you'll have any problems connecting them. Any idea what'a the output voltage of your phono amp, and the input tolerance of the subwoofer amp?

I have no Idea about output voltage of my phono stage, I believe it's selecting auto according to cartridge you install.

If your phono amp plugs into a preamp just fine, it will go into the subwoofer plate amp just fine.

From the Musical Surroundings site it looks like you cannot use XLR and RCA at the same time:
