Default Correct set-up for B-Band dual source pickup?

I may have asked this question here before so be gentle with me. I have installed B-band Core99 dual-source active pickups (UST + mic) in all four of my guitars. In order to blend both signals, do I need to use a stereo cable and a Y-splitter into two different inputs on the amp?

Yes!! You do need a stereo or Y-cable.
I took a little quote from B-Bnad's intro to the Core preamp
"The mike signal is taken out on the ring contact of the output jack, which has an extra contact over and above the usual two plus ground, allowing it to work in stereo and still provide a battery switching function. If a standard mono cord is used only the B-Band signal will be heard."
