Right below of the first subwoofer port, you will find the second one. They're both labeled SW, located in the pre-outs area.

The Sony STR-DH820 has speaker terminals for seven surround speakers, and two pre-outs for connecting actively-powered subwoofers. Look on the back of the unit for the second pre-out. I believe that you should use the Other Out for the Second Zone which should work for the second Sub Woofer.

I have since sold the unit. I used 2 powered Sub Woofers and connected them to the Sub Woofer Out on the back of the unit.

Any subwoofer occupies a single "channel" from the receiver - one that combines the low bass outputs from right and left channels. Thus, one standard cable is usually sufficient. Do check the rear panel of your receiver/home entertainment power unit. It should have one output receptable labeled "subwoofer" or something similar. That is where the plug from the speaker goes. Since bass frequencies are not localized by our ears, there is no need for 2 subwoofers or separate cables to connect them. If the subwoofer has separate input jacks for the right and left channels (labeled and usually color coded) - which is very unlikely - you would need two such cables, plugged into the auxiliary R and L low level outputs from your receiver's pre-amp outputs (labeled)!

If your AV receiver has a dedicated subwoofer output (like many newer AV receivers do) you would connect that single output to the left input of of this sub. If you have an older receiver without a dedicated subwoofer output output, you would connect outputs from your receiver's left and right channels to the left and right inputs on the sub.

Not if that works or not. I simply bought a rca cable "Y" cable and ran from subwoofer out on the receiver to the two inputs. These cables can be bought for less than $10.

Probably worth buying a more advanced subwoofer.... Thought mine was but unfortunately my RCA connection to my subwoofer did not work so I tried connecting my subwoofer to my two front speakers. Don't know if that is the proper way but that thing is delivering a thumping bass

Possibly, it all depends on the way the subwoofer is wired to the main speakers. Is it hardwired or can you disconnect it from the other two speakers altogether? If it can be disconnected then yes it's possible you may be able to use this. You might need an adapter though, again it depends on the connections.

There are two connections for this product. The power cable, and the audio line to the TV. I doubt you could connect an external subwoofer. Possibly if you tried an audio splitter.

Yes, in the center of the back panel, there are two purple RCA connectors labeled 'SW1' and 'SW2', respectively. I have one sub-woofer connected, but may expand to a second sw in the future. Hope that helps.

Yes, actually to the subwoofer. The sub is serving as the middle man persay. One set of wires connect from the sub to the reciever. Then a set of wires connect from the sub to the speakers.

Subwoofer should connect automatically. If not, I believe there's a connect button on sub.

"no" you only have to use the positive red input , in the back of your subwoofer . so if you have a double white & red rca cable ? just use positive output ( red ) out from receiver to red input on subb.!! red to red !! one cable is all you need !!

I bought a subwoofer cable and it only had one output while the subwoofer itself has two. The receiver has one input for the subwoofer. I've seen a lot of questions about this and it looks like the solution is a Y cable. You may also want to look at some speaker stands. You could make installation easier if you have the stands near your walls.

The Subwoofer out has to be enabled look at the manual. Also there's a test function to see if the subwoofer is connected correctly.

Yes, you can connect either a single subwoofer in mono mode, or a pair of subwoofers in stereo mode.

Yes, you'll need to buy a cable. They're very cheap at Amazon. Just make sure it's long enough. If there are two inputs, one right and one left, you'll need a 'Y' adapter at the subwoofer I'm not sure 'cause mine is boxed up. A r/l input will work with one cable, just connect it to the 'sub out' jack from your receiver and plug it into the 'R' input on the sub.
