I currently have a 1000 watt Phillips home theater system and would like to get rid of the passive subwoofer and put in a powered subwoofer. The phillips system does not have component audio outputs. It only has the two small speaker wires that go to the subwoofer. Please let me know how I can hook up a powered subwoofer to this system.
You only think you have a 1000 watt system, probably closer to 100 watts total. You can try a sub with speaker inputs, but no guarantee that it will work. You would be better off getting a real system, like a Denon/Boston combo.
