Difference Between a Passive and Active Subwoofer: Which is Better?

Home Theater Setups are super exciting, and the entire process of planning to execution is very overwhelming due to high number of components and devices; interconnecting them together to make the systems easier to use and enjoy.
One of the most common questions, feedback or comparison you will come across while planning for home theater system purchase is whether to buy active or passive woofers? What are the various types of woofers? And why woofers are important in home theater system? Minimum number of woofers for home theater room?
Well, if any of these are your questions too, then this video will help you chose between active and passive woofers. It will also help you understand the quantity of woofers required for a desirable home cinema experience. And lastly, where should you use passive woofers and in which case to use active woofers!
Passive Woofer – These woofers require the use of an external power source, such as an amplifier or receiver. Passive woofers are best first for large rooms that may need multiple units but are recommended to connect to a power amplifier and not directly to an AV Receiver.
Passive woofers when connected directly to AV Receivers as observed in some of the budgetary home cinema packages like Pioneer HTP series, Yamaha YHT series, Onkyo series, etc. can bring a load on the AV Receiver making it vulnerable to failures as the same receiver is also used by speakers to draw their power. During such scenarios opting for Passive woofers may not be an ideal solution. And that’s why we have….
Active Woofer – Active subwoofers, also referred as powered subwoofers, include their own power source, using a built-in amplifier. These active woofers are easy to setup and are best used in a single or dual configuration.
One of the most critical job in active woofers is the placement of these woofers in a home theatre room. Few recommend to put them in the corners, while others choose to keep them in the center.

There are pros and cons of each, Active and Passive Subwoofer. The six key features which need to be confirmed are –
1. Room Size – The room size can define the type of subwoofer you buy
2. Receiver/Amplifier – Passive woofer will require external amplifier in case receiver does not have a dedicated speaker slot for woofer. For active woofers, you have to check the pre out port and the quantity of these pre out ports.
3. Power – An ideal calculation says that the Woofer power should be equal to or twice the speaker output. Are you matching that irrespective of passive or active?
4. Connectivity – RCA Component cable for active woofer and speaker cable for passive woofer.
5. Budget – How much are you willing to spend on these woofers?
6. Design & Build – Front Firing/Down Firing? And the color/size of woofer to match your room design and ambience.
The most common subwoofers available in market are active woofers for a simple reason, the placement and quantity selection. You will find limited options in Passive woofers in mid budget segment and might want to shell out more to complete your experience.
