Adding a subwoofer to receiver without SUB OUT

I have a Pioneer VSX-305 Prologic surround receiver. The rear of my receiver has the following sockets: 2 front speaker outputs A2, front speaker output B1, center speaker output, 2 surround back speaker outputs. My speaker connections are not RCA. -Conforms to 5.1 standards. I connected it by buying a speaker line to RCA adapter on one end. This is because my receiver's speaker output is not an RCA, but an open wire. The problem was that I bought Pioneer 5.1 channel surround speakers so it used front A, center and surround back and the only speaker connection open was front B. I checked and this amp doesn't work with the front B speaker. So I turned it off. surround back speaker wire from the receiver and connect this sub-amp in its place. I then connected the surround back speakers to the front B terminals. It worked, the only problem now is that the rear speakers are now being used by the subwoofer, the prologic surround doesn't sound like real surround sound, and I'm now using SFC mode (studio setup) so it can work with front A, Front B and Rear speakers (which are now connected to this amplifier and subwoofer). the output of this subwoofer. Then I connected the other end to the subwoofer. It was easy to set up. While playing music, simply center the Sub Freq knob and simply turn left and right until the subwoofer blends in with the rest of the speakers. I listen to music off my turntable and tape recorder, pure old school analog, so I don't bother with Prologic surround sound. The sound is really very good.
