Derive subwoofer channel. How?
I have a respectable but old(er) 'stereo' receiver, a Sony STR-V55 (along
with a Sony PS-X75 turntable) which I use in a home-office. L-R speakers are in-ceiling mtd.(!) Sound is fine; however, I would like to pump-up the low end by adding a subwoofer. Rcvr and turntable can support it; ceiling-mtd spkrs are OK at best. There is a set of pre-amp out-in jumpers at the STR-V55's rear. What is the most economical way to derive a "center-like" 'bass' channel from both L & R channels? Regards, Wayne |

Replace the "jumpers" with a pair of RCA "Y-adapters" to maintain the loop connection. I would use the kind with two male connectors and one female. Run the L/R line-level signals to a powered sub-woofer which has line-level inputs. |

Do most powered subwoofers have two line-level inputs . . . . so that it
can derive the monophonic signal from both the L & R channels? Wayne "Richard Crowley" wrote in message ... "W.G.D." wrote ...

Some even have two line-level outputs which can feed the signals back to your main amps and speakers with the sub signal removed. That will increase their power handling and lower distortion. Kal |
