    PX8 HiRes with DAC

    You might wonder if it make sense to use an external DAC. The manual says when playing using the analog 3.5 mm connection: Why must it be powered? Very likely the analog input is converted to digital again. DSP like ANC, EQ, etc. is applied following by a conversion to analog to feed into the...

    Sub Wiring Help Needed Please

    Both of course accept the output of an amp at "speaker level". If it is a passive sub, I think speaker level is more appropriate as it is used to drive a speaker. It also will be low impedance and you might hit problems if you connect it in parallel to the main speakers. If it is an active sub...

    Sub Wiring Help Needed Please

    This is about connecting the sub to a stereo amp. It wants the bass from both L and R. Your amp doesn't have a L & R. You have a 5.1 amp so you can do 2 things. Use the SUB (6) speaker out of the amp into the high level input or use the RCA out of the amp into the RCA input of the sub.

    Connecting JAMO SUB 200 to Technics SU V 505 amplifier

    That is the right answer. It is a powered sub. The speaker level inputs are not used to draw power. Basically it is a high to low voltage converter reducing the speaker level signal to line input level. They have a high impedance so can be connected in parallel with your speakers without...
