It really depends a lot on your brand of subwoofer. If a REL ST series subwoofer is used for 2 channel music; then the high pass speaker connection is by far the best way to go.
There is no scientific explanation. This is how REL designed it to work, with the main speakers playing the normal full frequency range. They only recommend the pre-out connection for home theater applications because of the AC3/DTS bass signal.
