Does it output power to the subwoofer? Or do I need a powered subwoofer?

It will not power the sub. However I have mine hooked up to an un-powered pioneer speaker system and it works good.

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

@ gonzalez - yes, it does have a sub-woofer out. @ bradbury - yes, you need a self-powered sub-woofer.

That unit is not really designed with a subwoofer output however you could use the Pre out to send the signal to the sub but it will send all the frequencies to it along with sub frequencies. The other way is to use hi level in and out from the raw wire speaker outs. This acts as a pass through and carries the signal through the sub and out onto your speakers.

This receiver does use a powered subwoofer. If you hook a non-powered speaker to this outlet, you could very well blow your sub-woofer. I wouldn't take the chance.

No, you do not have to have a subwoofer. It's awesomer when you do, but still awesome without it.

The answer is yes.You can connect both: powered and non powered subwoofers.

The owner's manual is available at Denon's website. There is an output for a powered subwoofer shown in the manual. The photo of the rear panel in Amazon's product page also shows the subwoofer output connector near the bottom left. It's labeled PREOUT Subwoofer. You may wish to enlarge the photo for a better view.

There is a line level subwoofer output but not a speaker level subwoofer output. I am using a powered subwoofer with RX-A830.

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.)

The manual seems to indicate that the sub connects to the preout. It says if you are using a non powered sub, you need to run it through another amp. Long ago when I was using a non powered sub I used an old receiver in line to power the sub. I feel it is best to get a powered sub and let it do the work rather than drawing power from the receiver.

Thing is that the subwoofer needs to be active , most (or all for what I know) receivers dont send energy thru coax just the signal of sound , like in my case , and did nothing , so i had yo put an amp in between the speaker and receiver

Subwoofer output is line level (i.e. non-powered). You have to buy a powered Subwoofer. So to answer your question, no watts are put out to the Subwoofer.

Thanks for your question. There may be a photo of the back on the manufacturer's site. As this is only a disc player and not an amplifier, it will not have a subwoofer output. it needs to be connecter to a receiver to provide speaker power. This is a wonderful disc player.

You will need an amp unless you are getting a powered subwoofer which comes with a built in amp

In all honesty yes you do need to buy a powered subwoofer. Though you can run lines from the receivers left and right front speaker outs to the sub and then to the front speakers, you are asking way too much of the reciever at 75 watts per channel. But don't fret. You can find decent subs pretty cheap. I just ordered a Pioneer sw-8 from newegg for $79. They also have a 10 in Polk that goes on sale a lot for $89.

The built in amp only powers the subwoofer. You will need an additional amp for the other speakers. You have the capability to connect speaker wires from a amp to the sub and run your speakers out of the sub woofer.

It has its own power supply. It's an active sub (like most subwoofers). If you have to plug it into the wall, it's active. If it gets its power through the speaker wires, it's passive. Despite that, you can still run it from the speaker wires if you don't have a subwoofer output on your receiver.
