Is it possible to add a subwoofer? I currently have this amp and 2 bookshelf speakers hooked up to my laptop. Would I need to buy anything extra?

If you get a subwoofer that is powered by it's own amp, such as the Dayton SUB-1200, then all you'll need is the wiring. You'd wire the amp to the sub, then the sub to the speakers.

You can get a cheap powered sub and just split the speaker signal to go straight to the sub. So, don't think you'd need anything extra except for some more speaker wire.

It is a stereo amp with no additional output except for a headphone jack. You would need an additional way to power your subwoofer (I assume you are talking about having a 2.1 set up. This only is 2.0.)

You don't say how you want to add. Assuming that you want to connect to the subwoofer, check impedance on Acoustimass speakers (from specs). If same, then probably yes. Did you call Bose customer support?

If I understand the question correctly you will want to split the input to this amp. Have one part go to your sub and have the other go to this amplifier which will power your bookshelf speakers.

This is an all-in-1 setup. The amp is wired and set up to work with these speakers (or similar speakers in the same Ohms range). It's not built to pump out the low frequencies of a sub, nor does it have the power for it. You could use a spliter to run RCA cables to both this amp and a separate amp for a sub to "add" one to it. Or you could bridge and rewire and run one with very little power with this one, but you will eventually fry it.

Must 765 use a subwoofer with built-in amplifier? I connected a Velodyne VA806 subwoofer to my 765and it won't deliver any sound.

I am assuming your subwoofer is not amplified. If that is the case you can bridge this amp and feed it to your subwoofer.

You need a powered sub. I got a Polk audio sub off amazon too and it sounds great.

The sub out is only preamp out. You will need a powered sub. I recommend about a 250 watt, 12" sub. My sub is a Polkaudio 12" and it blows the walls down. I think I paid about $299 for it.

I just bought one and it does have a sub-woofer out, but my old sub-woofer (unpowered) does not work, i am trying to find out if i need a powered one. Does anyone know?

No additional amp, just the 16 watt per channel amp in the stock stereo I bought. The sub-woofer output of the stereo would not work with speakers this small, so if that is your intent, you'll want much bigger speakers.

Sorry but am not using a subwoofer. You may want to call sony support. they are very helpful.

Yes this subwoofer can I had it hooked to my home theater system while my car was in the shop. I removed the sub to put in a new box and it worked so well I considered buying another just for this reason. My advice is do it! :)

It does not have a dedicated subwoofer out. I run a pair of Epos Elan 10 bookshelves with this amplifier and I am very happy with bass levels without a sub. If you are a serious bass head you should probably be looking at something a little more biased, perhaps NAD.

A subwoofer is all you need...perhaps even getting a subwoofer with its own built in amp would be great

Everything matches up. All the speakers plug into the subwoofer then the lines from the sub go into your computer's 5.1 sound card. Remember its for a computer and is only accessible with the 5.1 sound card. Hope that helps

If I were you I would look for a good pair of PC speakers. Technically it is possible using an amp and converter cables. If you are using the computer as part of a music system setup then it maybe worth going this route.
