Where is the port located? (rear, bottom, etc.) Would this sub plug into the "subwoofer pre-out" of my amp?

Yes, plug one end into your amp sub pre-out and the other into the left out of the JBL

The port is on the bottom, and the pre-out SUB is where you would want to connect it. The feet on the sub hold it up plenty high for the bottom port to be functional.. In a small room, this is all the sub you need. our room is 16 x 18 with 2 open doors, still plenty of bass. it isnt the most refined sub, but properly adjusted it is not boomy either.

Bottom ported, and yes...ALL powered subwoofers connect to your amp's subwoofer pre-out (i.e., line level signal, not amplified) via a digital coax cable (RCA ends, but well sheilded). It comes with one cable, but not very heavy duty and only 6' long.

This mini amp runs in line with the radio harness connector. So the sub woofer outputs and rca plugs are still open for use.I'm running a kicker amp off an alpine deck and using the mini amp for the door speakers.

Hello Louise, Buy a sub that has Speaker level inputs and outputs on the back ( many polk, sony, bic etc. do). Simply install right and left speaker wires to the amp as you normally would for regular speakers. Then conect those wires to the r/l speaker INPUT on the back of the sub. Then run seperate wires from the r/l OUTPUT on sub to your speakers. Works and sounds great! Hope this helps. S

I would encourage you to hook up the sub to your receiver first to see if you need the amplifier. Unless you are calling your receiver an amp.The sub gets hooked into your right And left out the the speakers get hooked up to your sub speaker...marked left and right.

Plug in external subwoofer on my ats-1010 ,but no sound coming out to my powered subwoofer?

Yes, no issues other than relocating the stock amp. It is a solid built dual sub box!

it woudldent work becasue your subwoofer needs power (an amplified signal) and the power is carried through speaker wire, if you use this "adapter" the male lfe terminal is getting a un-amplified signal (signal with no power)

Yes in the back there is two outputs: front and rear (sub). YOU MUST UP THE SUBWOOFER VOLUMEN in the panel and bingo!!

Run your inputs like normal. Switch the amp to bridge and run your single speak-on or banana cable out the output marked Bridge. Keep in mind this amp does not have a built in crossover and you will be sending full range to your sub

I hope you still have the operating manual for this thing because that's where it looks like the answer is, on pages 29-32 under "System Setup". Use "AMP" to assign the rear channels to ROOM 2 and SW M to select the subwoofer mode. There's a "gotcha" here too. There are 2 sets of speaker jacks for the rear channels. One for SURROUND and one for ROOM 2. They are not interchangeable. I learned this the hard way through trial and error. Good luck. This is an amazing piece of equipment once it's configured properly

My sub-woofer has an RCA type connector that attaches to the rear of the sound bar. As you look at the rear of the sound bar, there are connections facing back and connections facing down (under the "lip" of the cutout area). The sub plugs into the down facing connector. I hope that makes sense!

Not 100% sure. It has RCA outputs for front, rear, and sub. Dunno if the front and rear are on separate pre amps or share one.

I'm not really sure,I don't have a sub attached,so I don't really recall if it had that output wiring.

BTW - only the sub is from the old system. I have a set of Yamaha's for the r/c/l set-up. :)

It has to be a loose wire. Check your ground wire. Make sure all connections from the head unit to the amp is secure as well. also might be another dumb question but is the sub mounted correctly? ie. have enough room

same here got mine from CL. not a bad sub if you lay it on its side and plug the port (don't care for ported down fireing subs seal it and lay it on its side sna it will sound better!)
