There are two types of subwoofers.
1. Active subwoofers
2. Passive subwoofers
An active subwoofer will have a built-in amplifier.
A passive subwoofer doesn't have a built-in amplifier which will require the use of an amplifier, the use of a power source.
yes
A passive sub-woofer does work when plugged in to an amplifier. In an active sub-woofer ("powered") the amplifier is built in.
Connect the sub woofer to the equalizer or amplifier. The positive wire will need to be connected to a power source. Connect the ground wire. Connect the auxiliary wire to the amplifier.
An amplifier "amplifies" sound to create more clear, and sometimes, a louder sound. Subwoofers strengthen levels to create a stronger pulse from the sub and bass sounds in your player. An amplifier supplies sound to a woofer, but a woofer can act without an amplifier.
The TV will need to have AUDIO OUTPUT jacks to connect to the speakers or a amplifier to power the speakers and subwoofer.
Any amp will power a 15" sub. What you need to know is what is the RMS of the 15" sub. Lets say its 200 watts RMS than you will want a max of 200 watts for your amp.
A sub from a 2.1 PC speaker system usually has the amplifier for both itself and the satellite speakers. You should be able to disconnect the satellites and use the sub by itself. You cannot use a speaker output from an amplifier to drive this sub, as the level is too high, but most surround receivers have a 'Sub Out' line level in the form an RCA jack. You can connect this using adapters to the 1/8" cable that plugs in the sub.
it is located on the right rear panel of the vehicle. If look you will find a meshed cover(right next to bottle jack storage cubby) . This cover pops of , once you have it off you will notice the sub woofer. You could also see the amplifier. To completely dismount amplifier you must take full wall panel off.
Yes you can. Seek professional assistance here or you could ruin the amplifier you install. Y-THInK-Y
you cant fix it, you need to replace it.
Find out what the rms is for that sub woofer,if it'1000 then find out what the max is,then you could go between the rms power and the max power to get the right amount of watts.
as far as i know there is only one amp and it powers the sub woofer. it is located in back, in the panel beside the sub woofer. pull off the panel covering the sub and look up to the left of the sub and there is a little gray metal box and a wire going from it into the sub box. the little metal box is the amp.
I think you mean a port? No it does not need a port
