It could be that the sub amp is using up too much power, causing it to trip out on you.

SOURCE: Sony AMP/Subwoofer Problem

It is probably the tweeter, inside the Sub. it's the small ceramic disk between the cone magnet, and the speaker. id this thing is cracked or broken, this will cause the problem. if this is not it, then it is a problem with something in the wiring, and the only way to rectify it is to buy a new sub. Sorry due :(

Hi most amplfiers have DC offset and short circuit protection. Since you have removed all the loads it should not have a short circuit on it, the other possibility is DC on the input so I would recomend trying disconnecting the inputs as one of them may have DC on it, however this is unfortunately unlikely. The most likely cause is that the unit has gone wrong and the power amplifer is faulty. One last thing you could try is too open the unit up and make sure all the cables and PCBs are connected properly sometimes a loose connection can cause this type of fault. Failing that, unless you know how to fault find electronics, you will need to take it to a repair center or replace it. Regards, Andrew

Kenwood vr606 reciever shutting off subwoofer and centre speaker simultaneously after few minutes/seconds of powering on. WHat's the cause?
The receiver's out put sections are grouped in pairs. Front left and right in one output, rear left and right in second output, and center channel and sub output on the third. Sounds like a semiconductor or semiconductors have gone bad in the center & sub output.

I need to connect the sub to my denon amp, can I get a cable to do this?
It all depends on the subwoofer; powered, or not powered. Most receivers have a low level output connection, 300millivolts: via an RCA type jack, labeled Subwoofer Output. With some of older subwoofers, you connect your speaker terminals from your Denon, to the subwoofer. From the subwoofer, you connect the output terminals to your front speakers. For more infomation, please contact me at audioserviceclinic.com. Thank you.

Htddw7600, brand new, sub amp is not working, only way to get any bass sound is to unplug the sub cable from back of main amp and touch it on side of sub out port.

You have a very good system...one of the best of SONY..SUB does not get activated automatically especially on STEREO mode.DIRECT STEREO Notes • No sound will be output from the subwoofer.
.your system has Dedicated Power Amplifier for 2 Externally Driven Sub-Woofers (200W RMS x 2)..in order to activate the sub woofer amplifier you need to make a selection on the surround modes while you are switching the modes of the surround you will see the speaker position on the display of receiver as well..if you do not see the sub woofer it wont be activated..Sound Field Program (A.F.D) is a good example to test it..

to the subwoofer according to the speaker settings.
• Select FRONT if you do not use a subwoofer. LFE and

Ok i just got the sub from a sony sswg450 i want to know is there some way to hook it up to my Pioneer home Receiver
Did you get a manual with it? According to the Sony site this speaker originates in Sony MHC-GX450.

"This product bundle includes the following models:
HCD-GX450 - STEREO MINI SYSTEM
RM-SC3 - REMOTE CONTROL for Shelf Mini Systems
SSRG444 - FRONT SPEAKER FOR MHCGX450
SS-WG450 - SUBWOOFER FOR MHCGX450"


Find the manual here and learn a bit about your seprated sub...

http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/model-documents.pl?mdl=MHCGX450

See page 7.

As can be seen, the subwoofer has two connections to the mothership, very unlike the standard speaker level (+/-) speaker wire or RCA-Line-Level subwoofer out that 'normal passive or active subwoofers use, respectively.

Not knowing which of those your unspecified Pioneer receiver supports, it is impossible to say. Does your Pioneer have that control jack?

Mini-systems are generally not designed to be pieced out and used with grown-up gear. The absence of standardized connections is the clue.

I have been given a Sony SS-WSX1 subwoofer. However |I do not have the bespoke cabe. I need the pin out of the sub woofer to connect the unit to my system.
The sub was part of a Sony DAV-X1. This whole system is highly proprietary in its connections for a reason. For all anyone knows, the original amp's output was frequency-shaped to correct for speaker response issues, like Bose would do. Substituting a different amp may be electrically unwise and audibly unsatisfying. It is certain that the DAV base unit did all the electronic magic to create a surround effect from only 2 speakers and a sub.

Your best bet to put these speakers to use would be to examine the sub and speakers for two conductors each that would be for the amplifier's audio output. Measured across them wit han ohmmeter it would read somether around 6 ohms.

Then somehow craft a physical connector to carry an amp's speaker output to it and carefully test it with very low volume.

My sub woofer has only speaker wire connections. how can i connect to port on the dh500
I don't think you can. The port will be for a powered subwoofer. However you simply connect the one or both main speaker channels via your sub speaker terminals and the main left or right (or both) speakers to the other terminals on your subwoofer. It all depends on how many speaker terminals there is on the sub. If there are two- one input & one output- connect just the right main speaker etc.
Remember the the speaker out of the amp go to the imput of the sub. And the sub outputs go the loudspeaker.

Subwoofer to receiver hookup
In general, there are two ways to hook up your sub-woofer. First using the high level outputs from your receiver ( speaker output from the front R & L speaker terminals ) run a set of wires from the outputs to the speaker inputs on the sub-woofer, you do this in concert with the speaker wires going to the front R & L speakers which you then attach to the R & L speaker outputs on the sub woofer amp. Note that the sub woofer doesn't power your front speakers, the connections from the sub amp are just a pass through connection where the signal needed by the sub is parasitically taken from the inputs.
Second is via a low level output from your receiver / amp to the low level input on your sub amp. This is normally done via a RCA type of patch cable and connected to the sub woofer RCA jack on the rear of the source receiver or amp, Next run the patch cord to the sub amp an into the RCA jack input. IF you have a right and left input, use the Right input.

Subwoofer Connection: Speaker wire to Mono RCA
The easiest solution to use your subwoofer is to buy an amp for it. Any old stereo receiver from a garage sale will probably do just fine.
  1. Connect the mono RCA subwoofer output from your Sony with a 1xRCA-to-2xRCA splitter to both the left and right input of the cheap reciever's tape or aux input
  2. connect both speaker outputs of the cheap reciever to the speaker input on your subwoofer. make sure both black (-) outputs on the reciever connect to the black input on the sub, and the red outputs (+) on the reciever are both connected to the red input on the subwoofer.
  3. make sure the cheap receiver's volume is all the way down. turn your Sony up to about the loudest you'll listen to it. turn up the subwoofer amp until it's loud enough to sound good.
  4. leave the subwoofer amp alone, the Sony volume will all you ever need to touch from now on.

You can even now turn off your subwoofer / adjust the volume easily now!
