Don't you have a sound card on your PC? Even a cheap one, an integrated one for instance? That would get you started with the cabling and the general use of REW. Later on when you received your new sound card, then you only need to calibrate and adjust the levels with the new card.
Yes my laptop has an internal sound card, but if read correctly the instructions on REW ... I can't use the microphone input; and that's all I have on the card

... Also: why would you want to send the low frequencies to your main speakers when you have subs to do the same job? In addition, if you use the LFE output then your subs will take care of ALL the low frequencies, not only for the main speakers.
My subs are not that great, frequency response is 35Hz - 150 Hz ... my main have the same minimum frequency response 35Hz - 20Khz; and on my receiver I have the option to send the sub output to Front speakers or Subwoofer or Both ... and that's what I'm doing (in my mind is like using four subwoofers )
