Dont forget that subs dont roduce the frequency range that regular speakers do. It is designed only for the very low bass noise and not speech etc.

You would have to dismantle the sub and remove the broken one first.

A good hi-fi shop or even musical instrument shop may be able to help you with that.

You would need to know the impedance of the blown unit along with its frequency range. That information would usually be in your user manual.

Its not a difficult job but if it is a powered sub then be aware of electrical hazards and ensure it is

The speaker is most likely blown out, and if it is there is no way to fix it, you will just have to replace it

My powered subwoofer no longer works through the receiver
if you have your front and centers set to 'small' you want your Bass out to be subwoofer only, and the rca jack labeled 'sub out' is the only place to connect your sub to if you want to control the frequencies with your reciever. I dont know the brand of your sub, or the inputs on the back of it to advise you where to connect, but it sounds like it worked for you at one time, but suddenly it does not

I own a Bose Acoustimass 7. I noticed humming coming from bass more noticeable than before (although I recently moved it to another smaller room) I also noticed when I hear this humming- the higher I turn...
I was having this very same problem. I finally figured out that I was getting feedback to the system because my TV cable coming into the house wasn't grounded right.

I have hooked this up to a working reciever that
Fill in the blanks about the working receiver.

You mention another subwoofer, which suggests your receiver manages the bass and possibly sends most or all of it to the sub.

If it's NOT sending the bass to the speaker terminals you use to drive the AM5 that would explain it's virtually silent bass module.

If those speaker terminals on your receiver can be set to LARGE, do it. Otherwise they assume the speakers are incapable of handling bass.

Why put woofer on the floor?
Because low frequency sound travels better lower to the ground. The effect if placed high up would be minimal

LF sound has more punch that regular speaker sound, it also caused more speaker movement and if placed high up could in theory pull itself from the shelf or mount.

You tube has some sub sound tests you could use to show this theory. or maybe the candle trick of putting a lighted candle in front of a sub when turned up a bit may convince you.

put a candle about 6 inch away from a sub and play some nice bass it will blow out the candle more than a regular speaker

Bare wire sub to single RCA jack receiver
Yes you can modify RCA cables to make bare wire tails.
If the unit has a sub o/p then you just connect up your sub bass unit to whatever the amp needs.

An RCA cable is 2 wire which is all you would normally need for sub bass speaker level signal.
It may be a good idea to eventually upgrade the wire size if you want really good sub bass as lower frequencies draw more current and so require more copper.

Please let me know if this any help, thanks for using FixYa.

Djust
alot of times its not just the amp that gives you better sounding bass.. A lot has a to do with a few other factors as well.. first off your subwoofer.. the bigger the subwoofer the deeper the bass. Some woofers exturde, or flex differently depending on the quality and structure of the woofer.. 2nd is gonna be the sub box. different size boxes will give your sub diff. depths of bass. ... general idea is the bigger the box deeper the bass. But if your woofer is not supplied enough power a big box is useless.   With that size amp your best bet is too run a single woofer. Probably a 10inch woofer would sound the best.. but it in.75cub inch. sealed box.. should sound great.

Woofer making horrible noise! HELP!
Think as an expert... Probably from my experience repairing woofers etc... the cone (1) or the spider (2) isn't well glued onto the woofer skeleton(or both???) The woofer cone must be absolutely centered or else you will get those clicks in low frequencies(you also get them in higher frequencies but you can't hear them!) I must say that it is very difficult to repair a woofer by your own. I suggest to return it back where you bought it and take another one (i suppose that you have a guarantee ha?).
