I currently have a Pioneer VSX-521. I picked it up for dirt cheap in January because I was waiting for the xx13 Denon lineup. Just a temporary way to get my home theater going. Anyway, I just bought the Klipsch Reference RW-12d 12" Powered Subwoofer. Haven't gotten my Denon yet. But want to test out my subwoofer (while I am within the exchange period). Before I hook this subwoofer up, any special considerations???
I see a single output for "subwoofer" on the receiver. But I don't think that either the receiver or the subwoofer came with a subwoofer plug. I guess I need to buy the cable separately. What cable do I need? I have a radio shack 2 mins up the street.
The picture of the subwoofer preout is here:

There are "high level" and "line in" connectors on the sub:
