Depending on the RMS power of your sub, and size and brand of your sub, it will depend.
If you have a single sub, I'd recommend a monoblock amp that puts out close to or enough to power your sub. You could also use a 2 channel bridgeable amp, as they are generally a much cheaper option. For dual subs, I'd say a bridgeable 4 channel amp, or high-output 2ch amp.
To give an exact amp, I don't go past the Pioneer GM-d8500M 1200w Class-D Monoblock amp.
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.
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
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.
If its got Rockford fosgate writtin on it
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.
under the center console. That was were my preowned 97 LX 450's amp was located.
Remove the wiring harness from your 2001 Chevy Suburban sub woofer. Remove the sub woofer retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install your new sub woofer.
it will not have r.c.a outputs but you can wire up a high to low speaker convertor which will give you the r.c.a outputs you require
