It only has line-outs.  If you've got a powered subwoofer, you can run
direct.  Otherwise you'll need an amplifier.  The on-board amp is  only
like 20W anyhow, so you'd probably want more than that to feed an 
external speaker anyhow.

I connected a powered sub to my DC3A through the line outs.  They are a 
little "hot" which will require you to only turn up the sub a little 
bit.  Best thing that I ever added.  Sound is MUCH better.  SJ

If you're looking for a powered subwoofer I highly recommend James
Loudspeaker EMB-1000, tremendous bang for the buck.

SJ,

 

Would you mind sharing the brand name and type of Subwoofer, i.e. modle
number.

 

Thanks

 

Dave

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
