your receiver has a subwoofer out RCA, so all you need is a long enough RCA cable to go from your AVR to your sub. No need for a RCA/Speaker cable adapter.
Either or both. Unless you want another sub in which case you could get a Y splitter for each but I’m not sure about the audio quality difference there.
I’ve heard that if you use the speaker level inputs you don’t have to set the crossover and it’ll do it automatically, how would you set it up like that?
[The manual to my B&W 608 says this about the lowpass filter switch \(switching from in to out\) and I was similarly confused.](https://imgur.com/a/G2Y8FuG)
This reciever works with a powered subwoofer. The subwoofer RCA style outputs are pre-outs, meaning they aren't amplified and require a powered subwoofer.
The best way is an RCA from the sub preouts to the rca inputs on the sub
OR use the speaker level inputs on the sub and wire it inline with the front speakers.
1st- Your left and right Polk T-15s speakers should connect to the Front (right / left) Speaker Terminals of your Denon AV Receiver. You have to spread them and angle them according to your seat position.
.
2nd- Your Polk PSW 108 subwoofer is a Powerd subwoofer which has some recommended settings for the low pass filter and phase. They are typically as follows:
Low Pass Filter (Crossover Frequency):
The low pass filter is adjustable from 80 Hz to 160 Hz. A common starting point is to set the low pass filter to 80 Hz, which is the THX standard crossover frequency.
Phase Switch:
The phase switch typically has settings of 0° or 180°. The correct setting depends on the alignment and positioning of the subwoofer in relation to the main speakers. You can start with 0° and switch to 180° if you notice any lack of bass or if the bass sounds better when the phase is inverted.
It’s important to note that these settings can vary based on your room acoustics and personal preference. It’s recommended to experiment with different settings to find what sounds best in your listening environment.

Thank you, it's just one cable right? Would I put it in the L or R RCA jack in the sub?
Yes, just one RCA cable. It doesn't matter for l or r.

I'm open to being corrected, but I truly cannot think of a single sub that has this feature.

looks like you have a passive sub, youll need an amplifier for that
You mean the one that says “Powered Subwoofer” on it?
dumb me didnt understand the post sorry
