Please log in for more thread options I cannot find the manual anywhere for my Kenwood VR-6050, and I know nothing of home theater systems... please help if you know about this receiver. I want to get a subwoofer and I do not really know what I need to look for, I keep trying to find a manual online but am having no luck, I find info regarding my Receiver as being a 5x100 watt. Does that include the sub? can my sub handle 100watts? I have what looks to me like, an A/V out connector that is black and says Subwoofer and another that says Surround Back. all have a white circle around it saying Preout. I borrowed my Parents Sub when they were in the process of moving just to use it. I couldn't hook it up, it had connectors that were for the normal Black and Red speaker inputs while mine was for this A/V connector. how do I hook a sub up to this receiver? what is surround back? is that another connector for a sub, will this help in improving my system? any advice on what sub I should get for this system? I currently have a 4 Klipsch satellite speakers and a 1 center channel. I am using the 2 Klipsch for usually just stereo. Thanks | ||||||||||||||||

No. Subwoofers typically are "active", i.e. they have an amplifier of their own. They get only the unamplified low-frequency signal from the receiver via Cinch. > can

Sounds to me like your parents have a subwoofer without amplifier. Your receiver doesn't seem to provide an amplified subwoofer signal. But don't worry. When you buy a subwoofer, just make sure it has a build-in amplifier, which is the common type. Then you'll be able to connect it with the Subwoofer Cinch (RCA) connector. | ||||||||||||||||
