Did you get a manual with it? According to the Sony site this speaker originates in Sony MHC-GX450.

"This product bundle includes the following models:
HCD-GX450 - STEREO MINI SYSTEM
RM-SC3 - REMOTE CONTROL for Shelf Mini Systems
SSRG444 - FRONT SPEAKER FOR MHCGX450
SS-WG450 - SUBWOOFER FOR MHCGX450"

See page 7.

As can be seen, the subwoofer has two connections to the mothership, very unlike the standard speaker level (+/-) speaker wire or RCA-Line-Level subwoofer out that 'normal passive or active subwoofers use, respectively.

Not knowing which of those your unspecified Pioneer receiver supports, it is impossible to say. Does your Pioneer have that control jack?

Mini-systems are generally not designed to be pieced out and used with grown-up gear. The absence of standardized connections is the clue.

If this is a house unit, it'll take 110V AC to power it up, then there is a voltage regulator after that that drops the voltage, so the electronics don't burnout.

The wire can be replaced. Contact any service technician. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/

How can I power the sswg450 if some one ripped off the place I'm supposed to plug in

Plain and simple. The device is broken. I can only say the laser might be dirty.  Perhaps get a laser lens disc cleaner. and check to see if that works. If not you should send it off to an authorized specialist. Or if you are feeling brave take it apart yourself.

The headphone jack on the shelf system is for connecting headphones. It is not an input for sound from an iPad or other source. Buy a lead with headphone jack to red and white RCA/phono. Jack goes to iPad. Red and white goes to Game Port Audio in (bottom edge of unit). Select the GAME input. Play your music.
