2 Sub Hookup on Denon

[Ejhocky313]

Hello All,

I recently purchased a LOT of Polk audio speakers to revamp my setup (nothing like stimulating the economy) and have a few questions about my setup. As of right now I have Monitor 50's for front right and front left, CS10 for center channel, and 2 pairs (4 total) of monitor 30's bringing up the rear channels. I am using a Onkyo 10" down firing 150 watt sub for the low end, and it seems to be doing an o.k. job, but I wanted a little bit more low end.

I was looking around online to replace the sub, but I got an email from newegg with a discount on a Polk 10" sub (PSW10) for 97.99 shipped, so I jumped on it.

I know that it's obviously not a powerhouse, but I think a little added bass maybe to put behind where I sit, or in the corner would spice things up and make the room sound a little sexier.

I was just wondering how to hook it up because I am already using my sub pre-out on my receiver for the Onkyo. I am uploading a pic that I cropped that shows the rear hookups of my receiver, maybe someone can give me some insight on how to hook this bad boy up?

Please excuse if my question is elementary for I am still learning a lot everyday.

A good Y-adapter should do the trick. Male to two Females and then to each sub. Be careful about not to corner load the back sub. Could get nasty.

Hi ej.

I recommend that you take some time to find the best location for the 2 subs.

You might try:

> 1 in each front corner.

> 1 next to each M50.

> The Onk up front and the Polk either next to or behind your listening position. Then switch the Onk and the Polk.

Is there a link to one online or something maybe if I know what it looks like exactly I could look for one at the local store, Best Buy, or Radio Shack perhaps?


Thanks

Yes BB and Ratshack should have what your looking for.
Just Google up "Y adapters" and you should get other buying options and plenty of photos on the various types.
