I really, really wanted a powered subwoofer, but was not going to spend a ton of money on one. I already had all the speakers I needed for it, but that model Pioneer receiver/amp does not provide direct power for a subwoofer - it only has a dedicated “line level” subwoofer signal via an RCA-type jack on the rear panel. I had been watching for an affordably priced (okay, “cheap”) powered subwoofer to use with a Pioneer surround-sound receiver with Dolby 5.1 Digital processing and digital fiber optic inputs and outputs which I had purchased at that same Goodwill store for only $15.91 (knowing it most likely needed some sort of repair, given the el-cheapo price, plus it was missing the very specialized remote control.) I repaired the Pioneer audio processor/surround sound receiver at a cost of about thirty cents (the cost of a voltage regulator IC) and had purchased a factory remote on eBay for about $20. I do love discovering the occasional project item at Goodwill or other thrift stores, etc.īecause the two external speakers (left and right) were missing therefore, there were no controls to turn the subwoofer and its internal amplifier on or off or make any level adjustments at the subwoofer because those are actually located one of the two external speakers. We'd hate to have you throwing them in the trash all willy-nilly.Altec-Lansing ATP3 Powered Subwoofer. Oh BTW, don't forget to recycle! Look for the triangle on the bottom to determine what class of plastic they are. For the benefit of all concerned, let's agree to consider that strike three.Īnd yes, this is why my screen name is "captaincranky", I say this so that you won't feel obligated to make post 4, by stating the patently obvious. I'm sure you thought that remark about your sister was terribly clever, but in the process, you tacitly admitted she was smarter than you. Now run along, take your Ritalin, and save your little tirade for someone more inclined to put up with it. It was made to be disposable, that's why they glued it together in the first place. That should "facilitate", your "entry" into the spacious 6 cubic inch enclosure. The best thing to do with this 10 dollar plastic garbage, is set it on the floor, then smack it several times with a large hammer.
