hey everybody this is nathan with pro acoustics back again for another tech talk uh here to talk to you guys today about how to hook up a powered subwoofer to your pro or commercial audio system uh how you can do it what you need and take a little bit of the mystery out of that for you [Music] all right so before we start talking about how to hook up a powered subwoofer let's talk a little bit about uh the two main types of speaker categories uh basically active or powered and then passive or unpowered uh basically i think we go over this in another video that i definitely would recommend you check out but the idea is that an active or powered speaker has an amplifier built into it also has to plug into the wall whereas a passive speaker plugs into an amplifier the amplifier is not actually built into an active speaker or it is built into an active speaker and there's no amplifier built
