Appassionato circa audio
I have been into audio for many years, but have always been an old school, 2-channel stereo kinda guy. I have also used quad receivers and had no problems setting up the systems and using them. I want to add a subwoofer to what is currently a simple stereo set up. I am doing this on a budget, and trying not to spend any more money than I already have, but I did just get a passive subwoofer and a power amp. Now my question, how the #$@& do I hook it up?
Here are the Pieces....1) Receiver with A, B and center channel speaker outs(A and B can't be used at the same time), NO subwoofer out. 2) 2 main front speakers, 3) a passive subwoofer with stereo speaker inputs and sattelite outputs ( I believe it has a built in crossover), and 4) a stereo power amp.
I understand the signal from the power amp goes to the speakers, but where do I get the signal from the receiver to the amp?
Can this be done with just a receiver and a power amp? or am I missing some pieces of the puzzle.
Sorry about the brain farts, but this is my first attempt at a non 2 channel stereo setup.
