Subwoofer output

I have a HK 3385 receiver with a line-level subwoofer jack. There is no mention of a Xover in the receiver. Do I need a subwoofer with a Xover?

You do need a powered sub with frequency and level controls to properly blend it with your other speakers. You don't need an external crossover.
