    I’m very sorry. Your question is not clear. Since the EKX-15S is a passive subwoofer, it requires an external amplifier to function. It cannot be powered by a powered speaker like the EV ZLX-15P (which only powers itself). You'll need a crossover to send only low frequencies to the sub (e.g., 80–120 Hz). This protects both the sub and the full-range speakers.
