i doubt i should even be asking this question on this site but i figured since so many people know about computers i figured someone could help me with this dilemna. I recently bought a new 6.1 channel Sony receiver. It has an RCA connection for the subwoofer on back of the receiver. however, on my passive subwoofer it has clip type terminals on the back of it. I bought an RCA to 2 tinned wires cable from radio shack but i still get no sound out of the subwoofer. I'm guessing the subwoofer is not getting power from the receiver. If anyone can help me out with this bizarre question it would greatly be appreciated. hope i do not get banned for asking such a non computer related question. thanks for your time.
