I have the most wonderful sub BIC F12 and i wanted to connect this bass shaker to its output provided at rear side. let me know if that can be done?

You need a dedicated amp that you can adjust the level and the hz. You can get one for around $100.

The bic has preamp outs on the back. You can connect the shakers. You will still need an amp to power the shakers

You still need an amplifier for the bass shaker, but you can use the signal output from the subwoofer. (Signal from sub goes to amp for shaker; amp powers shaker and translates the signal from sub).

I would go to bicamerica.com and go to the Contact Us page, then email or call them. You should be able to use one of the other speaker outs on the receiver (center rear perhaps) to one of the speaker inputs on the subwoofer. I recommend using 14ga or larger (smaller gauge number, i.e. 10ga) wire to run the sub though as you will hear substantially greater volume and clarity with a heavier wire especially for a subwoofer. Good luck.

I have a JBL sub with 2 inputs (L+R), the left goes to a line level control. My amplifier only has 1 sub out, I connected the cable to the left input of the sub. Really works great.

Yes, you could connect the speakers this way, however, increasing or decreasing the volume would also change the output of the subwoofer. Mine are connected by separate inputs so that increasing or decreasing speaker volume does not affect my subwoofer.

If your subwoofer has speaker-level (high-level) inputs you may connect the left and right channels from your amplifier to those inputs. You will still have to connect them to your speakers to have all the frequencies of sound. If it has one LFE input you have to use the SW preout from your amplifier, you cannot use the left and right channels

I guess it depends on the sub, but I have a Bowers and Wilkens and you just hook it up to the same terminals as your other ones then you adjust the bass level on the back of the sub

Yes, I am also interested about attaching a subwoofer. Has anybody any news on this?

I don't remember what the back of the unit looks like because the piece of garbage is in it's box up on one of the shelves. If it has 2 jacks on the back and you only have 1 plug on your subwoofer, you may have to find a cable splitter that has 1 input and 2 outputs. You can probably find one where ever electronics assessories are sold and it will not cost very much. If you do purchase another subwoofer, then 1 input will be for the left side and 1 input for the right. At least that's how it is on my Onkyo receiver I purchased to replace the Sony STRDH820 receiver that constantly broke down that Sony claimed nothing was wrong with and could not fix or replace. Good luck with your unit. I still "MAKE BELIEVE" that I did not get ripped off with mine.

Read the directions that come with the subwoofer . Should tell you all the ways to hook it up there

I do not believe you can. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8R4Vemvhsc&sns=em this is a good review and shows the connection options. Mine sounds like junk. It started to sound distorted or something about a month and a half in. My friend knows speakers and said the subwoofer is cheaply made and there is a lose connection so it keeps cutting out. I wouldnt buy.

Herringshaw-Yes it will add about 3db to the signal. I am using one on my Rythmic F12 subwoofer. The subwoofer sums the two inputs. It has nothing to do with giving the sub "the full range of sound", it merely supplies it with a stronger signal from the two inputs.Hope that helps, and BTW this is a very nice splitter.

Yes....in fact it's best that way. For best results, hook into a system with a sub wolfer or something with a deep bass response. I use a 1/4 in Y connector and run a bass amp and a guitar amp together. You get that big boom sound with the bass drum that way.

No, you can just plug it into either R or L, but if you use a Y adaptor, the subwoofer would be a few db louder.

The previous answers are good. Page 32 of the manual gives a picture of the connections on the back of the receiver. I have a B&W; subwoofer connected without problems.Eric S

Hi, you could but it will sound muddy because there is no tweeter or horn in it. It is meant for a bass guitar. Thanks

The receiver does not have speaker terminals for the subs instead it has a sub out which means that the output is preamp so passive subs won't work. Active subs (powered) are solution to the power need to the amplifier to reproduce deep low frequency. If you can't part with the bass module, this receiver is not for you. Otherwise just replace the bass module with a powered sub just realize it probably can't compete with the Bose bass module.

The unit converts your right and left speaker outputs from your stereo into a right /left rca +/- jacks. I suppose you could just connect one of your right/left speaker outs to the unit and run that same channel to a powered subwoofer input.
