Use a subwoofer cable from the back of the Onkyo (it's labeled "SUBWOOFER OUT") to the subwoofers Input jack. It's an RCA style connector and can be bought at any electronics store or online.
Equalizer is connected in between the deck and the reciever. Deck into the input of the equalizer, and the out of the equalizer goes into the tape input on the reciever.
Easy. Your home theatre amp will have a sub or LFE output ( RCA plug ). You simply connect this output to the input ( usually the left side, or use a Y splitter and use left and right inputs, or the LFE input if your sub has it ). Then, you must turn the sub on in your recievers setup menu, and your sub should work.
The 2 front speakers need to be connected to 2 big banana plug/screw connection marked Speakers A and not the last 2 color coded Push in style connectors,I had the same issue and this was the fix.Look at the quick setup guide closely,I did not look at it close enuff also.
That cable not only carries audio but it also powers the sub and other channel amplifers. Even if we could supply the pin-outs for the channels I'm not sure what we could do to provide subwoofer power. We're talking about a major rework.
This is a highly proprietary design, meaning it's really not very adaptable to normal spec audio equipment.
There's a flat-fee repair service for the receiver ($99.95, free return shipping):
I have the same setup. Are you going out of the subwoofer output of the reciever? (it's purple.) then into the LFE jack of the subwoofer (also purple.) That's the only connection you need besides power. If you have those right, try using your cable for something else to make sure the cable is good. Is the indicator of the subwoofer green? Mine comes on with the reciever. Good luck!
You might try different listening modes; Some modes (Direct, DTS, Dolby - though I'm not sure which, offhand) require a seperate LFE track for sound to be output by the subwoofer.
Please check your model number, I can not find it on the JVC service website.
This is a powered sub-woofer I think. You need to have a thick black cord that connects the sub to the head unit. Then the satellite speakers get connected to the speaker jacks on the sub-woofer box. The sub-woofer should also be plugged into an A/C outlet on the wall.
The speaker outputs are labeled right there where you connect the speaker wires. You should see a red and black connector for each speaker and they are labeled "front right" "front left" "center" "rear right" "rear left".
If you do not have the thick black cord you need to connect the head unit with the sub-woofer, you can not use this system.
If you look at the head unit and give me the model number on it, I may be able to find the part you need. But I must have a good model number to work with, preferably from the head unit.
