I'm confused about the wiring. Can I hook this sub up to my receiver with just one subwoofer cable? That would go from my Denon sub out to the RCA in?

Exactly. You got it. I'm not sure which Denon reciever you have, but if it's a 5.1 or better,(not a pro logic) it should have a single rca plug labeled as "sub out" or "low signal out". Use a heavy gauge sub cable or rca cable.

Yes, that is correct. You need one rca cable from your denon out and connect it to the input marked as 'sub in'.

Dear AR... I assume you are replying to the other's guy's post. I have a single RCA input on my subwoofer (as well as the alternative four speaker wire posts) and a single subwoofer RCA output on my Sony Receiver. The receiver works and the subwoofer works with the speaker wire connections. The subwoofer has an on and off switch so it must be powered. The subwoofer hums when I touch my finger to the unplugged end of the cable. So why doesn't the RCA connection work when plugged into the receiver?? What am I missing?

In theory yes, a regular rca cable can be used to connect a subwoofer to a receiver...but...as someone who tied it, I would not recommend using this cable for that purpose. The subwoofer has frequencies that a true subwoofer cable carries. Spend a bit more money and purchase a true subwoofer cable (in Amazon search: Monster subwoofer cabke). BTW In some connections the rca cable (left or right cabke doesn't matter) will not transmit any audio to the sub.

Use a splitter my receiver only has one pre out for my sub so when I placed the order I also got that as well. The splitter was a recommendation when I was looking at the sub and from what I was told when I was looking around it helps with the signal. This sub really hits nice and clean hope this answers the question

As far as I can tell your Denon does not have multi-channel pre-amp outputs. So there is no way to connect an outboard amplifier to your receiver.

If you use the L + R input on the back of the sub the unit will sum the input and create a mono signal for the amp. The sub out on the receiver is a mono signal already all you need is one RCA cable to connect to the sub. On most powered subs the one connection would be to the R input, but double check with the subs instruction info. The signal coming out of both sub outputs is mono. The second output is for hooking up second sub.

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.

As far as I know you only need a sub out from the receiver to connect. Google the sub and your receiver for complete instructions. That's what I did to figure out how I needed to connect mine.

subwoofers are only 1 channel...the wire splits the single channel bass response to each individual speaker and delivers much better definition on the sound..highly recommend...i have 2 subs on 2 different systems and a third system which is line wired right into the speakers.

The RCA output jack is for the subwoofer only. L, R, center, and surround L&R are simple bare wire hook up. Yes, you will need to wire in a RCA jack for the sub. Shielded cables are always better with any audio application.

You should read the manual on your subwoofer. Most subwoofers have a dual purpose input, 2 RCA connectors to use a standard "stereo" input, but one of those will also act as a coaxial input for single cable operation with most receivers

You can just run your main amp wiring to the high level inputs and then run the needed wire from the sub to the front speakers. If your amp is a integrated preamp with mutable pre-outs you can run a RCA from the secondary pre-outs via a single RCA cable. This will give you a 2.1 setup with the sub playing only one channel of the possible two channels. Mono powered subs can run a single channel and it will not sound as though your missing out.

Thanks for your question. You will need a powered subwoofer for any quality contemporary receiver. None have powered sub outputs. This is a fantastic sounding receiver. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud Denon dealer.

You will need a receiver/ amp setup for this to work. (Ex. i have mine hooked up to a Pioneer VSX-822-K 5.1-system and it sounds great.) Other than that, all wiring and accessories are included, or at least enough to get started. The sub has a built in amp so make sure there is an available outlet. It would be recommended that you buy higher quality wire and a way to mount the center channel and the surround speakers if they are not being placed on shelves.

No, you will have to get a subwoofer cable to plug from the sub to the receiver

It's simply a mono RCA cable, meaning, a single RCA cable rather then a stereo one. If you have only a spare stereo RCA cable laying around you can just hook one end of it up to the receiver. However, on the subwoofer side you may need a Y jack to turn it into a stereo signal.

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
