How does the reciever connect to the sub? Does the sub have a single rca input? I want to use this with my Integra DTR 5.9.

Yes single RCA plug... between me and you .. this system is rubbish.. Consider alternative carefully even if you must spend a little extra.

Yes the sub is connected with a single RCA jack and its powered so it needs to be pluged to an outlet let me say that I love bass and this is a very good sub I haven't even used it passed the half way mark because the bass output is very good

You need a powered subwoofer. There is a pre-out (low power signal) on the receiver that connects via an RCA cable to the input of your powered sub. You can confirm this on the images on the Amazon listing.

Yes. I used that connection from my DC-1 to my REL T9 subwoofer and it worked well. Technically, you may use either the Left or Right RCA out on the DC-1 since a subwoofer is essentially "mono". I used instead a "Y" cable connecting to both L and R RCA outs on the DC-1 and to the single RCA low-level input on my REL. This may have improved the performance of my sub, but not dramatically so. At least it made feel better. Remember that you have to set the volume of the subwoofer with the volume control of the subwoofer. Hope this is understandable and useful.

I would use a powered sub and connect the rca's on your reciever to it. Most 10" powered subs sound great nowadays.

Connect the wire from the subwoofer to the sub amp and the connect the sub amp via rca cables to an audio out on your receiver.

If you have a receiver that is 5.2 or 7.2 you can run one RCA cable to the Red and one to the white for the 2 sub outputs. That's what I did.

You should read the manual on your subwoofer. Most subwoofers have a dual purpose input, 2 RCA connectors to use a standard "stereo" input, but one of those will also act as a coaxial input for single cable operation with most receivers

All I know is I plug the single cable end into the AVR and the double end into the sub woofer and everything works just fine. Since there is no stereo information involved I would assume that the hot lead on the single end goes to both of the hot leads on the sub end and the ground of the single lead goes to both of the ground leads on the sub end making it a splitter of sorts but don't ask me why they used a double jack to begin with on the older subs.

Sorry this took so bloody long (if you'll pardon my French). On the back of the unit you will find a bank of 5.1 outputs (there are none for 6.1); using a 5.1 cable (not supplied, naturally), connect these to the corresponding inputs on your amplifier / receiver. Or, if your amplifier / receiver is so equipped, you can use the coaxial connection (coaxial cable also not supplied). Hope this helps. My first thought was to refer you to the User Manual, but that woulda been snarky, and anyway the darn thing is so confusing it should be called a Useless Manual. But anyway, ciao for now!

I'm also having problems with the sub. It worked initially but now it doesn't. Nothing comes out. I've tried a different cable and different sub so I know its the receiver. Did you ever figure out what was wrong with yours?

The previous answers are good. Page 32 of the manual gives a picture of the connections on the back of the receiver. I have a B&W; subwoofer connected without problems.Eric S

All ur receiver needs is a sub pre-out. So an RCA connection. Plug in to LFE(Low Frequency Effects) on sub.

I don't remember what the back of the unit looks like because the piece of garbage is in it's box up on one of the shelves. If it has 2 jacks on the back and you only have 1 plug on your subwoofer, you may have to find a cable splitter that has 1 input and 2 outputs. You can probably find one where ever electronics assessories are sold and it will not cost very much. If you do purchase another subwoofer, then 1 input will be for the left side and 1 input for the right. At least that's how it is on my Onkyo receiver I purchased to replace the Sony STRDH820 receiver that constantly broke down that Sony claimed nothing was wrong with and could not fix or replace. Good luck with your unit. I still "MAKE BELIEVE" that I did not get ripped off with mine.

My understanding is that this unit does not work with a sub. I believe there is a different unit that works with a sub.

This receiver has a subwoofer pre-out. You plug a subwoofer cable to the bottom plug on the pre-out on the receiver.

It goes into sub 1 this reciever is set up for 2 subs but it can be used with just one sub

You only use one channel, not both. Mind has RCA on both ends, rec. out and sub in. Use dual ended RCA and cut off one end to get the two wires you need to connect to rec. inputs.
