Subwoofers With High-Level Inputs (Reviews)
Most of today’s subwoofers have low-level inputs (either RCA or XLR) since they are designed for home theaters and can be easily connected to numerous AV receivers because most receivers have subwoofer (LFE) outputs. But what to do if your power amp or AV receiver doesn’t have a low-level (aka line-level) subwoofer output? Should you give up on a subwoofer? No, you don’t have to give up – you can just buy a subwoofer with high-level inputs (aka speaker-level inputs). These subwoofers connect to the existing left and right speaker outputs on your amp/receiver and don’t require a dedicated subwoofer output. When built properly, they are actually a much better option than the subwoofers with low-level inputs, especially for music.
