TECH TIP #9:  Subwoofers

 
Connecting a subwoofer is no problem if your stereo amplifier has a subwoofer output.  However, if your amplifier is a less expensive  or older model, you will have only "A" and "B" outputs.  In this case, connect the subwoofer to the left terminal of the "B" output which usually carries most of the bass material.  The resulting parallel connection will reduce the impedance from 8 Ohm to 4 Ohm, but this should work satisfactorily.
