Hi, I don't get much bass from my speakes and I have a yamaha amp lieing around. It has speaker terminals and I know you can connect it by wiring the speakers to the sub, then the sub to the amp.

But I guess sound quality wouldnt be too good that way and id loose the benefit of the amp?

Is there anyway I can leave my speakers wired up to my amp and connect the sub to my amp somehow?
 
Hi, its a stereo amp. The sub is active I believe with two rca labelled L (mono) and R (input 2).

There are speaker terminals at the bottom and I know how to use these to get the sub working in tandem with the speakers, however I believe this will mean that the sound quality will be affected as the speakers will be gettin the signals from the amp. is that true?

If so what other way is there to wire it up.
 
thanks :)

I just have 1 question, I connected two of the ends of the cable to the preouts on the amp. Theres two inputs on the sub, if i stick the rca cables in either 1 or both at the same time it works.

Should I just use one plug to the sub or leave em both plugged in?
 
thanks once again, the sub has no crossover just a volume knob. its nothing special but my speakers only go down to 70 hz so needed something to reproduce the lows.
 
BTW my system:

SB X-Fi xtreme audio
Nad C350
B&W DM110
Yamaha SWP201 amp. (part of a 5.1 sorround package)
 
ok dude cheers, dont think ill be buying a new subwoofer just yet. However i may invest in a cyrus 1 or 2 amplifier. I used to have the cyrus 1 and to me it sounded more lively then the Nad, granted the Nad has more power and is technically better I prefered the cyrus sound.

mite pick 1 up from ebay
