Q: QuestionI have an old amp that works fine: Denon PMA-900V. I already have on A output R & L speakers. There is a B output but nothing for a subwoofer. How should it be wired in? Thank you! Steve

• A:Answer Hello, you may need a subwoofer with speaker level inputs. From the Denon PMA-900V, connect speaker A or B to the subwoofer. Consider our DSW PRO 660 Subwoofer. The DSW PRO 660 comes equipped with speaker level inputs. The Polk Audio HTS 12 does not have speaker level inputs.

Q: QuestionCan this subwoofer be turned on it’s side?

Asked 4 years ago by CletusVandamme.

• A:Answer There is nothing that says you can’t. We have plenty of room so no need for us to lay it down on its side. If we needed to I wouldn’t hesitate to do it.
