is it necessary to connect the subwoffer

No, it's not "necessary" if all you want is the audio from the soundbar itself. But the sound is pretty thin without it.And there's no need to "connect" the woofer except to a wall outlet for power...it's wireless.You don't have to turn the woofer up to floor-shaking volumes to get the advantage of having it. I put mine in the rear of the cabinet where I mounted my TV, out of sight, and keep it turned down pretty low -- it still adds a lot of depth to the TV sound.

no subwoffer just needs to be plugged in to a outlet it is all wireless. If you don't want to turn it on you don't have to

It is a bluetooth sub that connets automatically if you choose not to plug it in, you can by-pass it

Juan is correct. Your subwoofer is probably unpowered, unless it has its own power cord. This receiver port that this connecter uses does not power the subwoofer, so you will not hear the signal through the speaker.

Not needed. It plugs into amp as it has a male plug to go into female receptacle on amp.

No. I received my unit today from Amazon with manufacturing date November 2013. The unit also dropped the sub-woofer unit after first use. The unit connected for 1 minute and now it's not even pairing with the bar unit. To be honest the bar seemed used or returned item from some other customer because I can see scratches if I hold a light at a right angle. Sound is great though so order a replacement. If same issue I will return.

If your subwoofer has speaker-level (high-level) inputs you may connect the left and right channels from your amplifier to those inputs. You will still have to connect them to your speakers to have all the frequencies of sound. If it has one LFE input you have to use the SW preout from your amplifier, you cannot use the left and right channels

Yes, you need an AV cable to connect your subwoofer to your receiver. An AV cable is the best way to go.

Connect a LINE LEVEL (not spkr level) out from ur mixer TO the sub. Then FROM the sub to powered spkrs or an amp and spkrs.

No, you will need to get wire to connect them as well as a sub woofer cable. Search MEDIA BRIDGE on amazon I've have been using them for the past few years and have never been disappointed. Get a quality speaker cable there are several supplier on amazon.....I use Cmpl CL2 rated cable...its over kill but sounds AWESOME

Unfortunately no. You need to buy the transducer seperate. Otherwise, its fantastic.

No. They're all of varying sizes so a few different sized couplers are needed.

I don't know about "safely," but no, this is not what you want. If your receiver has a single RCA output jack for a sub, it wants to see an audio/instrument/signal cable, not a speaker wire/cable. If your subwoofer has speaker-level ins, then you want to connect them to the speaker jacks on your receiver with a speaker wire. If your sub has a single RCA-style LFE input, it wants to see a (shielded) audio cable, not a speaker cable, and it should be connected to the sngle sub/LFE output on a receiver. It sounds like you are trying to mix signal types here because your receiver doesn't have the kind of output that your sub needs, and you don't want to do that.

I didnt use a connector on mine simply ran the wire threw the holes on the terminal. However they are very small. Theses where the first sub's iv ever had that didn't have push in terminals.

Yes because your sub is powered. It's better if your source has a separate sub, otherwise use the right channel.

I did not need any connection fittings. Therefore, the smart water filter fit my need perfectly and just needed connecting to the fittings I had already. Sorry.

Its connects with the basic female wire terminal connectors on the back of most speakers I've seen. But these are very nice subs for the price, just I would hve to suggest get the deal price on 2 rather than what I did buying the 2 seperate. It ended up costing me about an extra $10-15, but at the time I could only afford one plus I wanted to see if it was worth it or not, and it is. Also be sure you have an amp that can supply enough power to these and they'll be hittin hard.

Nope, not needed. Just run the subwoofer cable out of your receiver and plug into the left input on the subwoofer. Using the Y-Cord won't make your subwoofer play any better. It's always better to send the signal direct, rather than to break up the sound with a y-cord. This is why new bluray players now have two hdmi outputs. One goes straight to the T.V and one straight to your receiver. Why run to the receiver than back out to your T.V.? A straight shot to the location is always better. Stopping sound and then letting it back out through another cable always losses the quality of the sound. Same thing with Picture. Hope that helps!
