your receiver does NOT "power" your sub, it merely gives it a line level signal. the sub has it's own built in amp. If your receiver does not have dual sub outputs, you can simply use a "y" adapter..

Man this is a really good price but I feel like I'd still have buyers remorse by not saving up for the VTF-3 MK5 which is far superior.

This sub is rated up to 3000 sq. ft... if my room is 5000 sq. ft., Can I use 2 of these, or a single monolith 15 will be better? Also can it dig lower than 20hz? Thanks

The SB12 would be underwhelming. It's a sealed 12" down to 23hz.
I'm referring to the PB12. Ported 12", which will dig down to 18hz. Different subs entirely.
