This model has "Stereo RCA Line Out Jack " Does this mean it's a Sub Preamp output? Can I hook up an amp and subwoofer to this receiver?

I do know that you can plug it in to an amp ...... I am not an expert but I hooked it to my amp....Dick

Line out is always a preamp out to be used as any main amp input including a subwoofer amp in

You should read the manual on your subwoofer. Most subwoofers have a dual purpose input, 2 RCA connectors to use a standard "stereo" input, but one of those will also act as a coaxial input for single cable operation with most receivers

There should be a sub line out, mine had a single line out and I had to buy a 2 into 1 RCA adapter to make it work.

You could use RCA out (red and white connectors) on your stereo receiver to the RCA input on the amp. Because it doesn't have speaker binding posts you can't use it to replace an amp in your system, per se, of course there are workarounds, but as a headphone amp for a CD, SACD, digital stream, etc., through your stereo receiver it should work beautifully. Hope that helps.~Christian

Dear AR... I assume you are replying to the other's guy's post. I have a single RCA input on my subwoofer (as well as the alternative four speaker wire posts) and a single subwoofer RCA output on my Sony Receiver. The receiver works and the subwoofer works with the speaker wire connections. The subwoofer has an on and off switch so it must be powered. The subwoofer hums when I touch my finger to the unplugged end of the cable. So why doesn't the RCA connection work when plugged into the receiver?? What am I missing?

Mono RCA cable. There are subwoofer-specific models available. You only need one channel for the subwoofer. The reason the subwoofer has a L/R input and output is to allow you to use the subwoofer inline with stereo pre-amp cables. Running the subwoofer off of a surround amp with a dedicated subwoofer output makes this feature unnecessary.

The documentation for this item is appalling. I do not use a subwoofer. The Technical Specs can be found at:-http://store.sony.com/5.2-ch.-4k-a-v-receiver-zid27-STRDH550/cat-27-catid-ESP-Home-Theather-ElectronicsWhere It states:-Amplifier/Receiver Amplifier Features*4 Ohm/8 Ohm Switching : Yes (6 ohm)*Sub Woofer X' Over : 17 points (40 - 200 Hz) and Inputs and Outputs Audio Outputs*Pre Out (Subwoofer) : 2I am sorry I cannot help you more.

The RCA output jack is for the subwoofer only. L, R, center, and surround L&R; are simple bare wire hook up.Yes, you will need to wire in a RCA jack for the sub. Shielded cables are always better with any audio application.

It is a powered subwoofer, yes. It uses one RCA plug coming from my A/V receiver's "subwoofer pre-out".

My receiver has 2 output, so I haven't tried this - but the directions indicate you only need hook up one RCA jack.

Whatever device your connecting this amp to will need to have pre-amp out ports. You connect the amp to the stereo with r a jacks.

The pre-amp is self contained in the unit. It's output is fine to plug into an aux input of your receiver.

Does the amp have a pre-out or LFE output? this sub does not have a speaker level input

The only outputs are to two sets of speaker terminals, and one line level output for a sub-woofer. There is no line level output for the main signals. The speaker outputs are screw terminal for direct connection to speaker cables... the sub output is RCA jack. However, there are two outputs for connection to recording devices, so I suppose you could use those as line level audio outputs. Those are L/R RCA jacks.

I did not check but http://store.sony.com/ shows as follows: RCA Audio Output(s) : Front, Rear, and Subwoofer RCA pre-amp outputs

Sorry, but no, it's a "pre-amp". meaning it then needs to be connected to an amplifier or receiver which in turn are hooked to speakers. These are mainly used to hook up vintage turntables as modern amplifiers no longer have a proper "phono" input.
