Connect via speaker line (receiver's speaker to sub and sub to speakers). Set your main speaker to "large" and subwoofer to "non" in your receiver's bass management options. You'll geat great bass w/ either 2 channel music or dvd music.

Alternative approach here:

Fairly standard use here, but try both and see which you like.
