How can I hook up my Bose PS 28 sub and cube speakers to a new Harmon Kardon AVR 1700 receiver?

I have a Bose PS28 Sub and cube speakers and wanting to hook it up to the HK receiver and not sure how. The cube speakers are powered from the sub. I have the original bose receiver but eliminated it due to hooking up HD 3D TV with HDMI cable. The Bose receiver would not support HDMI. Is it even possible to hook this Bose speaker setup into my receiver?

SOURCE: cube speakers w/ no subwoofer

I have the acoustimas systrem and the speakers do need the sb. That's the heart of the system.
I dropped my two front cubes and neither work. If you would be willing to sell yours at a reasonable price I would be willing to buy.
Please contact Bose customer support and I believe they will tell yiou the same thing.

Please let me know.

SOURCE: I have Harmon Kardon AVR 25 ii receivers and I

To locate the problem...a) Cable
Test if right cable is ok, by interchanging the rt/left cables.

b) Test Bose right speaker
Connect the Bose right speaker to HK's left channel. Works? Then Bose right speaker is ok.

c) Test HK's right output by connecting the left Bose speaker to HK's right output.
Does not work?

SOURCE: AVR-1910 & Bose Lifestyle 35 setup

Bose Lifestyle (and all Bose-amplified speaker) products and their speakers are SYSTEMS and should not be split up or intermixed with other brands or models. Damage will probably result. Proprietary connectors provides a clue.

The digital audio out should work with the Bose. You could still use your Denon to drive a conventional sub in your scheme, but you would have to manually match volume with the Bose. Or go Full Monty and buy a full complement of speakers for the Denon, retask the Bose and slave its sources to the Denon.

Testimonial: "Thank you sir; your quick response is highly appreciated. I returned Denon and am considering DVDO Edge. Regret running Bose wires @ construction?"

How do I test the Bose ps28 3 sub woofer without any other bose components?

Thats a toughie because that system is well..a system. They build those so that each component runs through that main circuit board there and then thru the outs on the sub--I would look for a used player that you can hook it up to or pass on it.

I have a active sub woofer (akari bazooka) but the only connections available are the speaker connections. The front of the sub woofer has volume adjustment. How can I connect this sub woofer to my Harman...

hi,
You can't connect the pre out of your AVR to this sub woofer. Do one thing connect the frond left/ right channel speaker "B" out of harman kardon to the sub woofers left right speaker in put. you can connect the speaker out "A" to your normal left right speakers. Remember to switch Speaker "A" and "B" in ON position in your AVR. Also do one thing go to the speaker setup of AVR and switch OFF (slelect NONE) the sub woofer.This will disconnect the sub woofer pre our and the sub frequency will mix with frond left right channels.
ok

My receiver doesn't have a dedicated subwoofer output, can I still hook up a subwoofer? I have a harmon kardon avr 25

That would depend mostly on your subwoofer. There are some that slave off the front left and right speaker outputs and still pass the amp's power to the Front Speakers. That would be the only way that would ensure volume control.

Otherwise you have to feed a self-powered sub from the Tape Outs but that won't allow volume control from the H-K.

If you have the harmon kardon receiver, check out this reasonably priced system. You can actually find it cheaper than at this website but I have these speakers and, when paired with the Klipsch sub-woofer, it makes movie watching an unbelievable experience.
