New member Username: Jon_gordonPost Number: 2 Registered: Jan-06 | Hey guys, I like reading all your posts and hoped that someone might be able to help me with a problem I'm having. I had previously owned a Toshiba HTIB system and just recently started to upgrade. I kept the satellites/sub and bought a new receiver (HK AVR-140) and center channel (JBL EC25). My problem is this: The Toshiba powered sub has only speaker level inputs (actually its just a speaker line running into the box itself), but my new receiver has a subwoofer preamp RCA output. Is there anyway to still use this subwoofer? I got a basic speaker line to RCA converter from Radio Shack, but it did nothing. http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2102959&cp=&kw=speaker+wir e+rca&parentPage=search PLEASE HELP! I'm going crazy without bass! |
Unregistered guest | You can connect your sub in parallel with your main speakers. Connect both your main speakers and sub to your receiver's main L/R speaker terminals. If you do this, be sure to set your receiver to "subwoofer = no" so that LFE is sent to your sub via the main speakers. Your subwoofer's crossover control will also be engaged. |
