"Output to subwoofer" won't put out...

Posted by sanman on December 10, 2010 at 07:27:10:
Hello,
I acquired a Mitsubishi AV receiver used and hooked up my first 5.1, using an optical cable from the Plasma TV as the source. Very nice sound from all 5 channels, sans subwoofer. Then I put a nice 10" alnico driver in a box as a DIY sub and tried to hook it up to the "output to subwoofer" rca mono jack in the AV. I turned subwoofer function on, etc no sound. redid the y cable wiring (from traditional speaker jacks on the sub to the single rca jack on the AV)still no sound. Am I missing something, or maybe the AV is malfunctioning?
