Davy38 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 On my Klipsch subwoofer should the connection from my a/v amplifier be connected to the line in or line out what is the difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
001 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 the sub wont work if you connect the AVR sub out to the line out on the sub. they are just as labeled, one is for the line in to get a signal to the sub, & one is for line out to send a crossed over signal to a separate amp.

Davy38 Posted February 8, 2022 Author Share Posted February 8, 2022 Thank you so much. I have another issue that the sub will not turn off after 15 minutes as it did in the past so I have to manually disconnect cord from outlet. I am assuming it can stay on and not do any damage to the if left on permanently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
