Does your 25W stereo amp have a tape output. If so connect this to your 200W sub amplifier and switch it to mono so the single sub gets signal from both channels.
For option 3:
You will be better off using a much higher value of resistor on the unused channel of the sub amp, you will waste a lot less power and can use a smaller resistor. I would suggest 100 ohm, just to put a small load on the unused channel.
I love Hendrix for so many reasons. He was so much more than just a blues guitarist - he played damn well any kind of guitar he wanted. In fact I'm not sure if he even played the guitar - he played music. - Stevie Ray Vaughan
