Old Active Subwoofer Hook up - Advice Required

Splashtash on 09/03/2018 - 19:45

Hey everyone,

I was just wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to hook this active subwoofer up with a bluetooth adapter or how I could play songs from my phone. Or at least hook it up to the radio/other audio without using a tv or stereo.

This is the one I have below.

      The Bluetooth device also needs power from the USB hence a USB to 240V adapter.

      I'm not sure if this will work and if it does, it'll probably sound crap IMO.

      Cheers

        Yes it would sound crap without plugging in additional speakers which this unit has capacity for

      think i need a 3mm one. I bought one of these like 3 months back from gearbeast or something for a buck, tried it today but didnt fit. The hole is too small XD

    If you're just using a subwoofer, it's going to sound like shit.

    Frequency Response 24-170Hz

    Compare that to a cheap X50

    Frequency Response 132Hz - 20kHz
