Re: Mark IV Connecting to a Subwoofer

2006-10-02 by sjhart110110

I just have a Radio Shack model (optoma).  However, you can purchase 
any subwoofer as long as it is powered.  I have several more 
expensive models (Sunfire, Velodyne)in various parts of our home for 
other TVs and our home theater.  I just had the Optoma from another 
TV that we no longer use.  If I were starting over, I would get a 
Velodyne SPL1000R.  You also want one that has an "auto on" feature, 
so that it turns on when needed, but turns off it is receiving no 
input.  SJ
