Yes.A subwoofer with an onboard amplifier. The way home subwoofers have been made for 25 years.The only time a sub is "not self-powered" is when it needs an external amp.Your 950(have you looked at the back?) has a subwoofer pre out and 5 speaker terminals.Every single subwoofer ever made, and will ever be made, is compatible with that AVR.A Feit said:Thank you....could you define self powered?
