Connecting old HT sub to new reciever

[manojfly]

I have a ss-ws95 subwoofer from old sony home theater setup,
Now I upgraded to onkyo tr 676 receiver and mono price 11565 setup, the old sub has speaker wire, no power
How can I use the old sub, where should I connect to in receiver, the receiver is a 7.2 system

Thank you

HTS systems have all the amps in the main unit usually.
AV receivers never have an amp built in for the subwoofer since it may not be enough power anyway.
You will need to add a single channel amplifier to drive the subwoofer. Probably between 25-50 watts will be OK.
Parts Express will have amp boards and complete amps. Check them out.
