To my knowledge, no. An amplifier takes sounds waves from whatever device is inputted
into them and does what the name implies, which is amplify the wave into an audible form, then the wave streams through to the speakers, which transform the wave into noise through vibration of the speaker. They hold no real power. I'm assuming these aren't hooked up to your computer, and you'll most likely have to buy a new amp. Hope this answers something!

That soundn't be too hard a transformation at all. Just unscrew the amp panel from the back of the unit, and plug speaker wires into the terminals on the woofer. You could either drill a small hole in the amp panel for the wires or run them out the port.

Are you sure that will work? When I built my sub there were lots of dire warnings in the instructions about sealing it air tight? But I agree, just remove the amp and hook the wires in to the woofer.

I got it hooked up and it is working, although not as loud as it was when it was powered. Hey, some sub is better than no sub!
Kurant--not sure what you mean by high end amp that had a cross over into it. The receiver has a setting yo adjust the crossover frequency. I have everything under 100 going to the sub. |
