I want to add a sub but have no AV reciever


I have an HDTV in the living room but am not going with a home theater set-up. (That will go downstairs later) I would like to add a sub though. Is there any simple way to do this. Can I just buy a powered sub and attach it to my "audio out" on my TV and let the amp and cross-over in the sub do the work?

Thanks

OK, so I hooked up my TV to my 2 channel integrated. I can turn the TV speakers off or leave on and I can control the volume to the integrated with the TV volume either way. My TV allows this because you can set the analog audio out to be either fixed or variable. This function is independent of the the on/off control of the TV speakers. So I will either pick up a sub but may explore the Audio Engine 5 route also. I remain impressed with this TV. This brand was not on my radar but the 2XVT series was highly recommended on cnet so I did some research thought we would give it a try. So far we are quite happy with our purchase. It is the backlit LED version with local dimming and had good wireless internet connectivity and pretty good apps.
Chris,

Glad you got a chance to try it to make sure, but I must apologize for giving you VERY incorrect information.

I have also been working with SAMSUNG screens a lot lately and totally had a Senior Moment and mentally swapped with the Vizio (because I have also been using Vizio Soundbars.

In any event it is some of the the SAMSUNG TV's that don't allow you to use your TV's remote when you go external.

Sorry if I confused you, or anyone else by suggesting it was the VIZIO's

And I agree that most of my clients enjoy their VIZIO's and the pricing is sure reasonable.
Hi Summitav

No problem. Thanks for your comment. Mostly I appreciate that agon members are interested enough and supportive enough to offer opinions and advice, even with simpler questions/problems like mine.
