    Question [Help] Where to connect my subwoofer ?

    I have a Cerwin-Wega HT-S12 powered subwoofer that is hooked up to my DVD player which has a subwoofer out. Now I plan to get a new DVD player, where will I hook up the sub if the new DVD player doen't have a sub output? I also have a integrated amp, NAD C352, but it doesn't have an output for a sub. Can I get signal from Tape Out maybe?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Personally, I would get a Dolby Digital/DTS amp to replace your stereo amp so you can get discrete surround.

    But to answer your question, you can use the speaker level inputs on your sub as a work around.

    But the question I must ask is...why in the heck would you connect a sub directly to a DVD player??? You'd have no control over the volume.

    Thank you for your answer.
    I don't really need to control the sub volume. I only use it for movies, to enhance the low end sound effects.

    So I would have to connect the sub to the amp and then the speakers to the sub ?

    You can always parallell connect your subwoofer to the power amplifier outputs. Then adjust the high pass cutoff frequency on the woofer to match the roll off of your satelites. I think you'll be quite pleased with the results.
