PASSIVE SUBWOOFERS and ACTIVE SUBWOOFERS - EXPLAINED...

Home cinema subwoofers fall into 2 types - Passive subwoofers and Active subwoofers. Both produce those lovely floor shaking, room-filling, deep bass notes that give your music and movies scale and slam. But for those who don't know the difference, here's a quick explanation:

Passive subwoofers do NOT have built-in amplification power to drive the loudspeaker and rely on external amplification power - usually from an amp or surround sound receiver. Your dedicated amp will have a high level output for the passive subwoofer and it will usually consist of the normal + & - speaker terminals - this connection carries the audio signal (bass frequencies) and the current to drive the loudspeaker cone in the subwoofer. The passive subwoofer will also have the same connections (+ & - terminals, much like your regular left and right speaker terminals). Passive subwoofers rely on external power, hence its name - passive.

Active subwoofers have built-in amplification power for the loudspeaker in its box and is fed with a single or dual RCA connection that carries the bass signal from the amp, this is also known as a low level output which carries just the audio signal without the need for the current to drive the subwoofer cone. The Active subwoofer will have a single or dual RCA input that looks like a phono socket. The Active subwoofer will have its own power supply too - power lead and plug, hence its name, Active.

So, take a look at your amp's subwoofer output to determine what type of subwoofer - Active or Passive - you require.

A general rule is that home cinema systems (all in one kits/systems) tend to use passive subwoofer set ups whereas standalone receivers/surround sound AV amps tend to use Active subwoofer set ups. Occasionally you may find the odd home cinema system to have a subwoofer output for active subs - but that is the exception.

Hope that demystifies the dark and murky world of subwoofers for those who don't know. ;)

Priced to sell quickly so snap up this bargain!

No home cinema speakers set is complete without a subwoofer to produce the deep bass sounds. The Samsung subwoofer is a bass reflex type, which means that it operates efficiently and makes the lowest possible sounds.

This powerful Samsung subwoofer has 160 watt output that produces a deep and warm yet punchy bass sound. It will fill your moderate sized room with rich bass that gives music scale and rhythm and movie soundtracks dynamics and heft.  The sleek and modern styling gives it the appearance that blends in well with a modern living room with a high WAF (wife acceptance factor!).
