Sub XRL Jacks

Hi I tried searching for the answer to my question but I couldn't find anything.
I recently purchased a powered bass monitor for musica live performances. I'd like to use it for home theatre use when I'm not performing. There is XLR inputs and outputs. My Harman Kardon AVR 325 uses RCA subwoofer output. Can I use this powered bass monitor as a subwoofer for my home theatre by using a XLR to RCA audio cable?

You CAN use an RCA to XLR cable...

I do not know that a bass monitor will be useful as an HT sub, someone with more experience will have to chime in.

Thanks dyazdani. I figure I should be able to. Here's the speaker I'm talking about.

Hook it up! The XLR to RCA will work just fine. You may not get as deep bass as an HT sub,but you will get some thump.

The main difference is that the balanced has a +1db gain and the rca has a -10db loss. You may have to turn the bass gain up some to even out the sound. But is should not be a problem. A music center near you should have the adapter that you need.
