Can you connect a powered sub to this unit?

I know this question is dated. However this unit can be attached to a sound bar which in turn could have either a wireless or wired subwoofer.

I have a powered sub that accepts speaker-level input, and it works great attached it to the "B" output (I am only using the "A" output for my main speakers).

no, the subwoofer has the power supply. the power and volume are controlled from one of the speakers though

You can run a subwoofer off this amp. I'm not sure what you mean by powered subwoofer

I asked Energy customer service about this. They said connect to the LEFT input of the sub only. They were very adamant that it would not degrade the sound. They explained that the Left/Right inputs are there for some (older?) receivers that have split Left/Right outputs for the subwoofer. I was going to by a Y adapter, but they convinced me there was absolutely no need.

yes, you will need a receiver or an amp to power the two speakers. the sub has an amp built in.

Just plug the red and black wires into the back of the amp or receiver. Unless you don't have an extra slot for the sub. If that's the case I'm not sure how to help.

You will need a receiver that will power the speakers. Also an RCA cable for the Subwoofer input.

You could hook it up via an RCA to XLR adapter im sure if you have a sub out channel. Buy you cannot connect it to a powered channel.

No! Don't plug your Subwoofer into the outlet!! It doesn't have a preamp like other subwoofers. There are 2 pairs of wires: right channel [green (+) and white (-)] and left channel [red (+) and black (-)]. Just attached them to your receiver like you would any speaker. Good luck!

My understanding is that this unit does not work with a sub. I believe there is a different unit that works with a sub.

really unimportant with a sub. I dont have this sub, but the principal is universal for powered subs. I would use a std rca sub cable and the key is to be able to place it where you maximize its impact. yes should be useable w/ almost all modern recievers

Yes you can.. just connect your passive speakers to the satellite output on your subwoofer.

I'm not that good with electricity, but I think you can I have a big sub hooked to mine no prob

You will need a 1600w amp at minimum. The sub does not have an amp built in.

no.. it will be under powered.. even if the sub were a dual 8 ohm, the lowest you could wire it is 4 ohm, then you'd still be getting half power. Sell your sub because unless you're going to run 3 of them or more, an 8 ohm is pretty useless. The other repliers obviously have no idea what they're talking about so I hope you didn't buy this amp for that sub haha

You can absolutely attach a powered sub to the A-9050 it has rca plugs for subs.
